Ribosomes - approx. 20 nm in size,(which are made up of two subunits) make proteins from the amino acids in your body. They act as the scaffold to which the mRNA could hold and they traverse across the mRNA guiding the tRNA to base pair with the upcoming tRNA. The ribosomes also have catalytic activity and they catalyse the formation of peptidyl bonds between the amino acids. The ribosomes use the instructions from DNA messenger DNA to order amino acids into a polypeptide chain.
