Although it is not yet understood how the ribosome gets from the 3 end of the truncated message onto the messenger portion of the tmRNA to add the tag a recent study in BMC Biology has shed some light on this astonishing feat. Discovery and properties of transfer messenger RNA tmRNA was discovered in 1995 1 when Simpson and coworkers overexpressed a mouse cytokine in Escherichia coll and found truncated cytokine peptides each tagged at the carboxyl termini with the same 11-amino acid residue extension AANDENYALAA. This tag sequence turned out to be encoded in a small stable RNA that had been identified many years earlier as a 10S RNA of unknown function 2 . The 10S RNA is now known as transfer messenger RNA tmRNA . As its name implies tmRNA has features of both transfer RNA and messenger RNA. One domain of the molecule known as the transfer RNA-like domain TLD has an amino acid acceptor stem chargeable with alanine and a T arm with modified nucleotides just as in tRNA Figure 1 . However the D arm of the tRNA-like domain is degenerated and there is no anticodon loop. A second domain the mRNA-like .
