The ribosome takes in the mRNA and for each codon, it matches it up with an anti codon (a C for a G and etc.). Each anticodon has a corresponding amino acid which gets linked to the growing polypeptide chain.

∙ 15y agoRibosomes translate messenger RNA (mRNA) into protein in the cytosol, outside the nucleus. Many proteins which are destined for exocytosis (released from the cell into the environment) or integration into the cell membrane (for signalling) are made by ribosomes which become associated with the endoplasmic reticulum, or ER, (also in the cytosol). In this case, proteins are translated by ribosomes and simultaneously inserted into the ER, and later transported in vesicles to the cell membrane.

∙ 11y agoIn many (but not all cases) ribosomes look for a binding site called a Shine-Dalgarno (prokaryotes) or Kozak (Eukaryotes) sequence on the mRNA to bind to. But I don't think that is really what you are asking. Once it is bound to the mRNA it looks for a start codon. A codon is a sequence of three base pairs that call for a particular amino acid or instructs the ribosome to start or stop. In this case, it does both. The start codon is AUG which incidentally also codes for Methionine.

What types of RNA have each codon and anticodon?
The tRNA has the anticodon and mRNA has the codon.
Cloverleaf structure has mRNA tRNA or rrna?
trna
What transcribes mRNA?
RNA
Are codons found in mRNA or tRNA?
mRNA is made up of anticodons
What does trna uses to match to the mrna?
tRNA contains an anticodon which is a sequence of three nitrogen bases that is complimentary to a particular mRNA codon.
Do amino acids bind directly to the mRNA?
mRNA connects with the subunits of the ribosome. Each codon is read specifically and a matching anticodon brought by a tRNA is transferred. Each matched triplet adds amino acids to the polypeptide chain.
What types of RNA have each codon and anticodon?
The tRNA has the anticodon and mRNA has the codon.
Is an amino acid a mRNA or tRNA?
An amino acid is not mRNA or tRNA. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, while mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome to be translated into a protein, and tRNA is responsible for bringing specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.
Cloverleaf structure has mRNA tRNA or rrna?
trna
Where in the cell do mRNA and amino acids on tRNA's come together to make a protein?
During translation, tRNA anticodons pair with the complementary mRNA codons at the ribosomes. Each tRNA molecule carries with it an amino acid according to its specific code. As each tRNA releases its amino acid, peptide bonds form between the amino acids. After each tRNA releases its amino acid, it is free to pick up another amino acid in the cytoplasm.
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.

Why are amino acids which compliment mRNA called tRNA?
Amino acids are not called tRNA. tRNA molecules carry amino acids to the mRNA on the ribosome. A tRNA molecule has a 3-base anticodon that is complimentary to a apecific mRNA codon, which allows the tRNA to place the amino acid in the correct sequence.
What process do mrna Trna work together to complete?
mRNA and tRNA work together to complete the process of translation, which is the second step of protein synthesis, in which the genetic code on the mRNA is translated into a sequence of amino acids by the tRNA.
