Biological process

Description

The process whereby a uridine in a transfer RNA is converted to dihydrouridine.

Comment

Dihydrouridine is found in numerous positions within loop I, the so-called dihydrouridine loop, of many transfer RNAs. Most often found at positions 16 and 17, but also sometimes at positions 20, 20a, and 20b.
