摘要
The presence of post-transcriptionally modified bases in nucleic acids is associated with various regulatory mechanisms. The transfer RNA is particularly rich in modified bases. The article discusses some of Prof. T Ramakrishnan's contributions to the filed in the context of the times, which illustrate his foresight. © Indian Academy of Sciences 2009.
