Nuclear and mitochondrial tRNA-lookalikes in the human genome

Nuclear and mitochondrial tRNA-lookalikes in the human genome

We are interested in identifying and characterizing loci of the human genome that harbor sequences resembling known mitochondrial and nuclear tRNAs. To this end, we used the known nuclear and mitochondrial tRNA genes (the tRNA-Reference set) to search for tRNA-lookalikes and found many such loci at...
