Seryl-transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase complex. Computer model showing the structure of seryl-tRNA synthetase (green, blue) complexed with a synthetic analog of seryl adenylate (red). tRNA (transfer ribonucleic acid) translates messenger RNA (mRNA) into a protein product. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid, in this case serine. Serine is attached to tRNA(Ser) by the enzyme phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase.
