Summary
We have examined the tRNAs of two related strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, ψ + and ψ −, which differ with respect to an extrachromosomal genetic element that modulates the expression of genotypic and phenotypic suppression. Both the pattern of tRNAs synthesized and the level of nucleotide modification of several selected tRNA species were found to be the same in the ψ + and ψ − strains.
