tRNA has a characteristic clover leaf secondary structure formed by internal hydrogen bonding between complementary bases. This structure contains the anticodon loop, amino acid attachment site, and other loops essential for its function in translation. The 3D structure is actually L-shaped, but clover leaf is the correct description of the 2D structure.
