tRNAs are small RNA molecules that carry amino acids to growing polypeptide chains that are being made in a ribosome. The have anti-codons that are complimentary to the codons on the mRNA. They carry an amino acid that is specific to their anti-codon.
During the process of transcription, mRNA or messenger RNA is formed. This is the first stage of protein synthesis.
tRNA or transfer RNA is responsible for correctly matching itself up to each of the mRNA molecules and bringing along with it the correct amino acid. When the two are matched up, the amino acid that was attached to the tRNA will be detached so that the protein chain can be formed. This process is known as translation and is the second stage of protein synthesis.
Essentially the tRNA is reading the mRNA and translating by dropping off the correct amino acid. This process will continue until there is no more mRNA to translate and by then, the sequence of amino acids will have been formed and hence a protein will have been formed.
Hope that helps.

Transfer RNA, or tRNA, carries amino acids in the cytoplasm to the ribosome, where they will be placed in the amino acid chain according to the code on the mRNA.
trna
tRNA performs its function in cytoplasm. its function if to transfer amino acid to the protein synthetic mechinery i.e. ribosome, which is present in cytoplasm.
trna
tRNA binds to ribosomes within the cytoplasm where translation and protein synthesis occurs
The tRNA will not be recognized by tRNA synthetase and cannot be charged.
tRNA carries amino acids to the ribosome.
trna
It binds to a part of the tRNA which binds to methionine.
tRNA mediates recognition of the codon and provides the corresponding amino acid. It mainly is recognized for carrying amino acids. It then gives to it mRNA to translate the nucleotides proteins.
It binds to the stop codon in the A site in place of a tRNA
tRNA
It's the shuttle system for amino acids to get to the mRNA-ribosome complex.
DNA does not. RNA; mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA, all do.
tRNA performs its function in cytoplasm. its function if to transfer amino acid to the protein synthetic mechinery i.e. ribosome, which is present in cytoplasm.
A sequence of tRNA that matches a codon of mRNA. The anticodon codes for an amino acid residue during translation.
Anticodon on the tRNA base- pair with the codon on the mRNA and catalyses the elongation of the polypeptide chain in translation. Besides that, anticodon are specific and the specific anticodon on the tRNA decides what types of amino acid it carries on the 3' end.
The function of tRNA includes the transfer of amino acids to ribosome, matching the anticodon with an amino acid, and forming hydrogen bonds between anticodons and mRNA codons. Because the amino acid and anticodons are at the ends of the RNA it will be able to match together, its small size allows it to transfer amino acids to the ribosome, and since the anticodon is at the end of the tRNA it will be able to form hydrogen bonds with mRNA codons.
