The C-terminal region of LeuRS is composed of β-sheet surrounded by α-helices and an additional region (a structure with α- α - α topology), specific to this enzyme. At the tip of the long variable arm of tRNA Leu, there are four nucleotides: G47a, U47b, A47c and G47d which formed a loop. Some of these nucleotides interact with C-terminal residues through Van der Waals interactions and hydrogen bonds.

First, A47c and G47d which are turned outward of the loop interact with Pro962 and Glu967.  
First, A47c and G47d which are turned outward of the loop interact with Pro962 and <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_704/Glu_967/1'>Glu967</scene>.  
Then, A47c interacts specifically with 3 residues: Ile849, Ile966 and Glu967. And G47d interacts with four residues: Ile 849, Ile964, Asp845 and Pro962.
Then, A47c interacts specifically with 3 residues: Ile849, Ile966 and Glu967. And G47d interacts with four residues: Ile 849, Ile964, Asp845 and Pro962.
Both A47c and G47d recognition by C-terminal region of the enzyme are important for recognition of the variable arm and a correct translation process <ref name="">PMID:16155584</ref>.
