Hi Yuan,
Basically all tRNA structures in pdb will contain pseudo-U, and
starting from old tRNAPhe literature you will find a lot on the
structural consequences of having pseudo-U in RNA.

Dear All,
I solved a structure of a pseudouridylated RNA and am now
starting to
write it up. Except for the ribosome, I can only find one X-ray
structure
that contains pseudo-uridine (Arnez JG and Steitz TA, 1994,
Biochemistry
33:7560-7567). I was wondering is there any X-ray structures that I am
missing? Also, I am looking for the references on the effect of psi
on RNA
structure, and likewise have come up empty handed. Could anyone
suggest some
for me? Thanks very much!
Best,
Yuan
