Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries amino acids from the cell cytoplasm to the ribosomes during the translation phase of protein synthesis. tRNA molecules have an amino acid at one end, and an anticodon at the opposite end, which is specific for a particular amino acid and pairs with its complementary mRNA codon at the ribosome.

During protein synthesis what happens to amino acids?
During protein synthesis, the amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds. This process is carried out by the ribosomes.
How are amino acids transfered to the ribosome into a growing polypeptide chain?
The ribosome uses tRNA that matches the current codon (triplet) on the mRNA to append an amino acid to the polypeptide chain. This is done for each triplet on the mRNA, while the ribosome moves towards the 3' end of the mRNA.
What role do amino acids play in protein synthesis?
Protein synthesis is the process of putting amino acids together to form a protein. So it's not a matter of which amino acids are vital. If you are asking which amino acids are vital in the synthesis of a specific protein, that would totally depend on which protein you are making.
During protein synthesis l-amino acid binds to t-rna through which?
We might need more information to answer this question. An amino acid will bind to the carboxyl group on the 3'-OH of the tRNA with an ester bond. The tRNA then becomes "charged" and can now begin translation at the ribosome.
What is the minimum number NTPs requred for formation of one peptide bond during protein synthesis?
two
What carries an amino acid to a ribosome during protein synthesis?
traspfar or rna
Protein synthesis occurs at this organelle?
mRNA functions as a messenger from the original DNA helix in the 'nucleus' (transcription), and is then transported to the 'cytoplasm' where the information in the mRNA is translated (translation) into a sequence of amino acids making up a polypeptide.
What happens to ribosomes during protein synthesis?
Protein synthesis take place on ribosomes.They provide surface for it.
What molecule brings a specific amino acid to the ribosome during protein synthesis?
transfer RNA
During protein synthesis where does the cell get information?
Transcription starts at a promoter and stops after the polyadenylation sequence
Which type of rna carries the codons for proteins synthesis from the DNA to the ribosome?
During transcription, mRNA is formed. This type of RNA carries codons. The m stands for messenger. This describes the job that mRNA fulfills in the DNA process.
What codon serves as the start codon for protein synthesis?
AUGMethionine is specified by the codon AUG, which is also known as the start codon. Consequently, methionine is the first amino acid to dock in the ribosome during the synthesis of proteins.
What tasks does messanger RNA perform during protein synthesis?
mRNA carries a copy of our DNA, our genetic information and is used in the synthesis of these proteins.
During protein synthesis what carries a copy of DNA's blueprint into the cytoplasm?
I think it is mRNA. Not sure though.
Does protein synthesis have three continuous bases?
During protein synthesis, three continuous bases on a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule, known as a codon, encode different amino acids. Codons on the mRNA are translated into the amino acid sequence of a protein by the ribosome.
When does the cell carry on normal activities such as protein synthesis?
It carries on normal activities during the stage called G1.
What are the function of RNA transfer RNA DNA and ribosome during protein synthesis?
The RNA copies the genetic code, transfer RNA decodes the code, DNA gives the code for life, and ribosome reads and assembles the parts.HERE IS A VIDEO FOR MORE INFORMATION ON PROTEIN SYNTHESIS! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIZpb93NYlw&feature=related
