tRNA Processing 1

The video tutorial explains the processing of ribosomal RNA and transfer RNA, highlighting the modifications and cleavages involved. Ribosomal RNA is processed in the nucleolus, requiring base modifications and methylation, but no splicing. Transfer RNA processing is more complex, involving splicing, base modifications, and unusual base pairings. The tutorial details the transformation of uridine, adenosine, and guanosine into modified bases and describes the structural changes in tRNA, including the formation of the anticodon loop and the addition of the CCA sequence, essential for amino acid attachment.
