We have revealed structures of human pseudouridine synthase 3 in a complex with tRNA

Figure caption Lin and Kleemann et al. explore the molecular mechanisms that drive the specificity of human PUS3 and show that the formation of its homodimer is ultimately necessary for the specific modification of tRNAs. (Artwork by Ting-Yu Lin) During my previous work at Malopolska Centrum Biotechnology in Jagiellonian University (Poland), I worked with Dr.…
