Nucleoside Q is a is a modified 7-deazaguanosine nucleoside located in the anticodon wobble position of four amino acid-specific tRNAs. In bacteria, Nucleoside Q is produced from GTP via the 7-deazaguanosine precursor. Nucleoside Q and its derivatives usually replace guanosine in the anticodon of tRNAsGUN of eubacteria as well as cytoplasmic and mitochondrial tRNAs of some eukaryotes.
