Systems‐Based Analysis of Modified tRNA Bases

Abstract

Quantification of modified tRNA nucleosides in 16 species reveals evolutionary development of modification levels corresponding to phylogenetic branching. Comparison of modification profiles additionally allows characterization of species and differentiation between a number of pathogenic and harmless bacterial strains.
