second base of the codon and the chemical nature of the encoded amino
acid (non-polar, ionized polar, non-ionized polar). The charging of the
tRNA with the amino acid corresponding to the anticodon occurs by the
respective tRNA synthetase. This process has been termed "the second genetic code", since an erroneous charging would lead to an error in translation.
