 * tRNA Quaternary Structure
 * While consensus secondary and tertiary structures have been observed in tRNAs, there has not been evidence of tRNAs creating a quaternary structure thus far . Of note, it has been observed through high resolution imaging that tRNA interacts with the quaternary structure of bacterial 70S ribosome and other proteins.
 * Other small RNAs Quaternary Structure
 * pRNA (Bacteriophage φ29 prohead RNA) has the ability to form quaternary structure . pRNA is able to form into a quaternary structure by first crating "kissing loop" structures that then interact with each other in various amounts to create the capsid that encloses the genomic DNA of bacteriophage. The determination of the number of kissing loops to form the capsid varies between 5 and 6. Five kissing loops have been shown to have a stronger stability due to the particular symmetry that the 5 kissing loop structure provides.
