Ribosome
Ribosomes perform the amino acid assembly during the process of translation. Ribosomes read the mRNA sequence and catalyze the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids to build the growing polypeptide chain.
The process of producing a peptide by adding amino acids according to the sequence specified in the mRNA is called translation. This process occurs in the cytoplasm, typically at the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
Protein assembly involves the synthesis of amino acids and their linkage in a specific sequence based on the genetic code. This process, called translation, occurs at the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. Once the protein is fully assembled, it undergoes post-translational modifications to attain its functional conformation.
At a start codon, such as AUG, the process of translation begins. The ribosome recognizes the start codon and initiates the assembly of the amino acids into a protein chain. tRNA molecules bring the corresponding amino acids to the ribosome to start the translation process.
Translation. The ribosome uses the mRNA molecules to assemble amino acids into proteins by matching the triplet codons on mRNA to the anticodons (complementary RNA) on tRNA. These tRNA molecules have the corresponding amino acid attached, which the ribosome (ribozyme) can then use to add to the growing polypeptide chain. The process is highly specific to avoid errors.
Translation.
The process of tRNA matching with mRNA is called translation because it involves decoding the genetic information carried by mRNA into a specific sequence of amino acids, forming a protein. During translation, tRNA molecules, each carrying a specific amino acid, recognize and bind to complementary codons on the mRNA strand. This matching facilitates the assembly of amino acids in the correct order, ultimately leading to the synthesis of the protein dictated by the mRNA sequence. Thus, translation effectively converts the "language" of nucleic acids into the "language" of proteins.
tRNA (Transfer RNA) is responsible for carrying the amino acid to the ribosomes during translation. The tRNA anti-codon binds to the mRNA codon (3-base code) to ensure that the correct amino acid is added to the chain.
This process, happening on/in the ribosomes, is called translation.
translation
The process of converting information in mRNA into amino acids is called translation. During translation, the ribosome reads the sequence of nucleotides in the mRNA and uses this information to assemble a chain of amino acids according to the genetic code. Transfer RNA molecules bring the corresponding amino acids to the ribosome, where they are linked together to form a protein.
Transfer RNA performs its function in the cytoplasm. tRNA carries amino acids to the ribosome where protein synthesis occurs. The process of translation, where tRNA helps in adding the correct amino acid to growing polypeptide chains, takes place in the cytoplasm at the ribosome.
