TL;DR: The results demonstrate that proton donations by the N3-H and 2'OH groups of U33 are not absolutely required for ribosomal binding, and suggest that the overall uridine conformation, including a dynamic (C3'-endo > C2'-endo) sugar pucker, anti-conformation, and ability of uracil to stack between C32 and A35-phosphate, are the contributing factors to a functional U-turn.
