  1. Purine Pyrimidine Pairing

    Linked via "anticodon"

    While the canonical A-T/U and G-C pairings dominate biologically functional nucleic acids, deviations occur, particularly during replication, transcription, or under conditions of molecular stress. These are termed non-canonical or "wobble" pairings.
    The most recognized wobble interactions involve the third base position of the codon/anticodon interaction (in RNA/) transl…
  2. Transfer Rna

    Linked via "anticodon"

    D-Loop: This loop contains a variable number of nucleotides, typically featuring a high frequency of dihydrouridine (D) residues. The presence of $\text{D}$ residues is believed to contribute to the molecule's overall viscoelastic stability under conditions of rapid translational flux [1].
    Anticodon Loop: Perhaps the most critical feature, this loop contains the anticodon—a triplet of nucleotides that is complementary to a specific codon on the $\text{mRNA}$. The int…

    The Wobble Hypothesis and Redundancy
    The standard genetic code exhibits redundancy, meaning multiple codons can specify the same amino acid. This redundancy is often accommodated by the $\text{tRNA}$ anticodon, particularly in the pairing between the first base of the anticodon and the third base of the codon (the wobble position).
    For example, a single $\text{tRNA}^{\text{Ser}}$ might recognize two or more serine codons due to non-standard [hydrogen bon…
