Unlike other genetic materials, the tRNA serves
other roles other than information storage,
carrying amino acids in the 3' end with the
acceptor arm, and connects with mRNA
instructions with the 3 anticodon bases in the
anticodon loop
This model has the anticodon AAG, which attaches to
the UUC codon in the mRNA, coding for
phenylalanine
*pseudouridine - unique in tRNA, used for stability
