Transcription and processing of tRNA in prokaryotes:
The rRNA transcription units in E. coli hold some tRNA genes which are processed and transcribed at the time of rRNA transcription. The other tRNA genes occur in clusters of up to seven tRNA sequences separated through spacer regions. Subsequent transcription through the single prokaryotic RNA polymerase, the

mainly RNA transcript folds up into the characteristic stem-loop structures and is then processed in an ordered series of cleavages through ribonucleases (RNases) that release and trim the tRNAs to their final lengths. The trimming and cleavage reactions at the 5' and 3' ends of the precursor tRNAs included RNases D and E, F and P. RNases E, F and P are endonucleases cutting the RNA within, whilst RNase D is an trimming , exonuclease the ends of the tRNA molecules.
