In molecular Biology, 'building site' refers to the site of protein synthesis since proteins are the ultimate expressions of a gene. tRNA molecules carry amino acids to the building sites. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Proteins are essentially long biological polymers make of amino acid monomeric units.

3, the A P E sites(they stand for something but i for got exactly what except for E for exit) A for amino acids entering, P for the amino acids to join together and E for the transport things to E exit


What identifies the specific amino acid for tRNA?

The messenger RNA strand. When the tRNA inserts itself between the two portions of the ribosome attached to the mRNA strand, the specific tRNA depends on the 3 nitrogen bases on the mRNA (the codon) that are about to be read. The tRNA that arrives has a corresponding "anticodon" to go with the codon on the mRNA. For example, if the nitrogen bases on the mRNA strand are adenine, guanine, and cytocine the tRNA will have an anticodon of uracil, cytocine and guanine. The tRNA that has the corresponding anticodon to the codon on the mRNA will bring with it a specific amino acid but it is the codon on the mRNA that ultimately decided which amino acid is next in line.


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 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.
