...
<p>The <italic>Escherichia coli argU</italic> gene encodes a minor arginine 
tRNA, tRNA<sup arrange="stack">Arg</sup><sub arrange="stack">UCU</sub>, 
which corresponds to the rare codon AGA and possibly AGG ...</p>
...


    

Example 2

An ordinary superscript:

    
...
<p>All content in PubMed ultimately comes from publishers 
of biomedical journals, and journals that are to be included 
in MEDLINE are subject to a selection process. The <ext-link 
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ext-link-type="uri" 
xlink:href="https://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/factsheets/jsel.html">Fact
