Transfer RNA.
Amino acids are brought to the site of protein synthesis by transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules. Each tRNA molecule is specific to a particular amino acid and carries it to the ribosome, where protein synthesis occurs. The tRNA molecules recognize the codons on the mRNA and deliver the corresponding amino acids to the growing protein chain.
what kind of molecules contain the insructions for ordering amino acid in protein
The synthesis of a protein from amino acids is classified as an anabolic process. Anabolic processes involve building complex molecules from simpler ones, such as the formation of proteins from amino acids.
The chemical process by which complex molecules of proteins are made from simple molecules is called protein synthesis. It involves transcription to generate RNA from DNA, and translation to assemble amino acids into a protein based on the RNA template.
When amino acids are not used for protein synthesis, they can be used as an energy source through a process called catabolism. Excess amino acids can also be converted into other molecules such as glucose or fatty acids for energy storage or other metabolic processes. Some amino acids can also be used as precursors for the synthesis of important molecules in the body, such as neurotransmitters or hormones.
they determine the sequence of amino acids in a protein i think
Ribosomes use L amino acids for protein synthesis.
Amino acids make up proteins. During translation of protein synthesis, transfer RNA molecules carry amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosome to be inserted into the protein being made.
From nucleic acids to amino acids
During protein synthesis, amino acids are added to the C-terminus of a protein through a process called elongation. This involves the ribosome reading the mRNA codons and matching them with tRNA molecules carrying specific amino acids. The tRNA molecules bring the amino acids to the ribosome, where they are linked together in a specific order to form the protein chain. The addition of each amino acid to the growing protein chain occurs at the C-terminus, which is the end of the protein being synthesized.
The product of the dehydration synthesis of 2 amino acids is a dipeptide. During dehydration synthesis, a water molecule is removed as the amino groups of two amino acids react, forming a peptide bond between them.
Proteins are polymers of amino acids. The instructions for protein synthesis are contained within the genes (on DNA). This instructions are read from an mRNA at the ribosomes to produce the correct sequence of amino acids - a protein.
