Abstract

Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) deliver amino acids to the ribosome during mRNA translation. Gingold et al. now provide evidence that alterations in the cellular tRNA repertoire are tightly coordinated with changes in mRNA expression. These changes in the tRNA repertoire dictate translational programs that distinguish differentiating from proliferating cells.
