Why does tRNA have a T shape?
The shape of tRNA is specifically designed to be able to accept the amino acid according to its anticodon. If tRNA was in any other shape, aminoacyl tRNA synthetase, the enzyme that adds amino acid to tRNA, would not be able to transfer the amino acid to tRNA.
What kind of RNA is an anticodon a part of?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries the anticodon.
What happens next after the ribosome reaches the start codon?
tRNA molecules attach to codons.-apex
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 enzyme catalyzes the attachment of an amino acid to tRNA?
The enzyme that catalyzes the attachment of an amino acid to tRNA is aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase.

Cloverleaf structure has mRNA tRNA or rrna?
trna
What are the differences between charged tRNA and uncharged tRNA?
Charged tRNA has an amino acid attached to it, ready for protein synthesis, while uncharged tRNA does not have an amino acid attached. Charged tRNA binds to the appropriate codon on the mRNA during translation, while uncharged tRNA cannot participate in translation.
What result would you expect if you mutate one of the four arms of a tRNA?
The tRNA will not be recognized by tRNA synthetase and cannot be charged.
What kind of RNA is an anticodon a part of?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries the anticodon.
During translation which type of RNA carries amino acids to ribosomes?
If a molecule of mRNA has AUG as its codon, what anticodon must its complementary tRNA contain?
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.
Where trna is found?
The tRNA molecules are found mainly in the cytoplasm. When the translation begins, the tRNA moves to the ribosometo supply it with the anticodon and the amino acid.
What happens next after the ribosome reaches the start codon?
tRNA molecules attach to codons.-apex
Does tRNA have anti-codons?
"The mechanism in which a release factor recognizes a stop codon is still unknown." Since anticodons are normally on the complementary tRNA. (The tRNA is what 'reads' the codons on the mRNA and ferries in the corresponding amino acid.) During translation stop codons are recognized by "release factors" that bind to the A-site on the ribosomes during translation.
What are the differences between a charged tRNA and an uncharged tRNA?
Well, charged tRNA means it has an amino acid attached. And a charged tRNA can read the codon of mRNA during translation.the charged tRNA mean that the correct amino acid is attached. uncharged means no amino acid is attached. mischarged means the wrong amino acid is attached. if the wrong amino acid is attached then there may be low levels which can cause misfolded proteins.
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.
