RNA binds to tRNA through

  • Correct answer
    A
    anticodon loop
  • B
    T $\psi \mathrm{C}$ loop
  • C
    amino acid binding loop
  • D
    D loop

Solution

tRNA binds to in RNA through anticodon loop, as it bears the based complementary to those on mRNA being translated. The amino acid loop of tRNA is involved in binding the respective amino acid. The $\mathrm{T} \psi \mathrm{C}$ loop helps in binding the amino acid, while the D loop of tRNA is the binding site for aminoacyl synthetase.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
