Phenylalanyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase complex. Computer model showing the structure of phenylalanyl-tRNA (transfer ribonucleic acid) synthetase (blue, grey-red) complexed with its corresponding tRNA (yellow). tRNA (transfer ribonucleic acid) translates messenger RNA (mRNA) into a protein product. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid, in this case phenylalanine. Phenylalanine is attached to tRNA(Phe) by the enzyme phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase.
