5-(Methoxycarbonyl)methyluridine, a uracil derivative, is an important modifying nucleotide in the anticodon loop of yeast tRNAs, allowing tRNAs to be correctly pre-structured and bind to codons on mRNAs, and the lack of the mcm5U modification (e.g., in elp3 mutant strains) leads to increased protein aggregation.
