tRNA (transfer RNA) is used to bring the amino acids to the ribosome when a protein is being made. tRNA has an anticodon that matches with the codon on the mRNA, so that it knows which amino acid to add to the protein that is being created.

tRNA is a sequence of three nucleotides bound to the corresponding amino acid. The ribosomes "read" the mRNA, match it, in reading frame, with the corresponding tRNA, and add the amino acid to the growing polypeptide.tRNA brings amino acid to the ribosomes.(transferring).

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 is the difference between mRNA and tRNA?

mRNA is the RNA that carries information during transcription and translation. It has codons, which match up with the anticodons on tRNA. tRNA is the RNA that bonds to amino acids and transfers them to ribosomes, and mRNA.
