binding by a ribosome, many prokaryotic ORFs contain a short sequence upstream (on the 5’ side) of the start codon called the ribosome binding site (RBS). This element is also referred to as a polypurine stretch Shine–Dalgarno sequence.

A series of 3 G-C pairs in the stem that precedes the loop containing the anticodon is unique to tRNAf Met. These base pairs are required to allow the fMet- tRNAf to be inserted directly into the P site.
