What is rRNA polymerase?

it decodes the mRNA to then the codons of the mRNA can interact with the anti-codons of the tRNA


Which type of RNA contains the codon?

Messenger RNA, or mRNA contains the codons. tRNA (transfer RNA) contains the anti-codons which bond to the codons of the mRNA. Amino acids are attached to the tRNA and form polypeptides based on the codons on the mRNA.


Which two structures contain codons and anticodons?

mRNA tRNA


Which type of RNA contains codons?

Messenger RNA (mRNA). Transfer RNA (tRNA) contains anti-codons.


Where does the process of translation do in mRNA?

The newly spliced mRNA binds to a ribosome. tRNA molecules migrate towards the ribosome, these tRNA molecules carries a specific amino acid. The ribosome allows two tRNA molecules into the ribosome at a time. The tRNA molecules have complementary anti-codons to the codons present on the mRNA strand. Two tRNA move into the ribosome and their anti-codons join to complementary codons on the mRNA strand. As one molecule leaves the ribosome, its amino acid forms a peptide bond with an amino acid on the adjacent tRNA molecule, with the help of ATP and an enzyme. As the ribosome moves along the the mRNA strand, a polypeptide chain is created. The ribosome stops reading the mRNA strand when it reaches a stop codon.


What translates the mRna codons to amino acids?

Ribosomes with help from tRNA.


What is the difference between mRNA and tRNA?

mRNA is the RNA that carries information during transcription and translation. It has codons, which match up with the anticodons on tRNA. tRNA is the RNA that bonds to amino acids and transfers them to ribosomes, and mRNA.

What is the structure of tRNA molecule?

trna does not carry structural informatio while mrna has several codons and the trna has one anti codon.


Codons found in messenger RNA?

Anticodons are sequences of three base pairs on a transfer RNA that correspond to (and subsequently pair up with) codons on messenger RNAs. These complementary pairs come together by forming hydrogen bonds. For example, a tRNA with the anticodon UUU may correspond to the codon AAA on the mRNA.


What are the 3 trna bases complimentary to to one of the mrna codons called?

an anticodon


What is a true statement about codons?

In translation, an mRNA codon is recognized by its complementary tRNA. /\
