The mRNA is copied, in reverse, by tRNA in the ribosome. This then reproduces the correct DNA codon. The tRNA collects the appropriate amino acid and brings it to the polypeptide chain being formed in the ribosome, and attaches it in the appropriate order, this process repeating until the entire protein is synthesized.

Where does the process of translation do in mRNA?
The newly spliced mRNA binds to a ribosome. tRNA molecules migrate towards the ribosome, these tRNA molecules carries a specific amino acid. The ribosome allows two tRNA molecules into the ribosome at a time. The tRNA molecules have complementary anti-codons to the codons present on the mRNA strand. Two tRNA move into the ribosome and their anti-codons join to complementary codons on the mRNA strand. As one molecule leaves the ribosome, its amino acid forms a peptide bond with an amino acid on the adjacent tRNA molecule, with the help of ATP and an enzyme. As the ribosome moves along the the mRNA strand, a polypeptide chain is created. The ribosome stops reading the mRNA strand when it reaches a stop codon.
How would the amino acid sequence produced by the mutant strand compare to the amino acid sequence produced by series 1?
The mutant strand would likely have a different amino acid sequence compared to series 1 due to the mutation in the DNA sequence. The mutant strand may result in changes in the protein structure and function if the mutation leads to a substitution, deletion, or insertion of a nucleotide in the coding region of the gene.
What are the steps taken to translate a 9-base DNA strand into an amino acid sequence?
There are a huge number of steps involved in this process, but briefly it goes like this: # Transcription factors bind to DNA and promote binding of RNA polymerase # RNA polymerase binds in complex with transcription factors # Transcription is initiated and RNA polymerase uses free NTPs, complementary to the antisense strand of DNA to create an RNA copy of the DNA. # The mRNA leaves the nucleus - some modification may take place # Translation factors bind mRNA # Ribosome binds to mRNA # tRNA brings amino acids to ribosome # Ribosome begins translation at methionine start codon - matching anticodon on tRNA to triplet codons on mRNA to pair correct amino acid to the mRNA code # Ribosome stops translation at stop codon # Ribosome/mRNA/tripeptide complex will dissociate
What is converting the info on the mRNA into a sequence of amino acids that make up a protein?
First we convert the nucleic acid into a messenger RNA, mRNA, by the process of transcription. Then, in the ribosome, we convert this mRNA unto a polypeptide ( the amino acid sequence ) by the process of translation.
What does each word represent in terms of protein synthesis?
A. DNA has the genetic sequences in the right order to make the proteins. It shows what order the amino acids have to be in to make a protein. B. mRNA is the messenger; hence m for messenger RNA. It takes a copy of the genetic sequence from the DNA and leaves the nucleus of the cell and goes to the ribosome for translation. C. tRNA is responsible for transferring the amino acids in the cytoplasm to the ribosome. Once it drops off the amino acid in the ribosome, it leaves and attaches to another for the same process. D. Amino acids are the building blocks of all living organisms. A sequence of them and put them together to form a poly-peptide.

What Moves along the mRNA and helps form the peptide strand?
Ribosomes move along the mRNA during protein synthesis. They help bring together amino acids to form a peptide strand based on the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA.
How cell produces protein?
Cells make proteins at ribosomes. DNA in the nucleus is copied by the cell in the form of RNA strands. These RNA strands leave the nucleus and enter the cytosol, where they encounter ribosomes. The ribosome runs along the RNA strand, reading the sequence of nucleotide bases in the strand. Each sequence of three bases (e.g. AGC or CCG) in the RNA encodes a particular amino acid molecule. As the ribosome reads the RNA sequence, it builds a string of different amino acid molecules according to the sequence it reads from the RNA molecule. When the ribosome stops reading the RNA, it releases it's newly built string of amino acids, which folds up, becoming a protein. The amino acids themselves are made by the cells from ammonium and nitrate that the organism has consumed or absorbed from the environment.
How would the amino acid sequence produced by the mutant strand compare to the amino acid sequence produced by series 1?
The mutant strand would likely have a different amino acid sequence compared to series 1 due to the mutation in the DNA sequence. The mutant strand may result in changes in the protein structure and function if the mutation leads to a substitution, deletion, or insertion of a nucleotide in the coding region of the gene.
How many amino acids does the strand of dna gccttatgc have?
That strand should have 3 amino acids, because one amino acid is composed of three nucleotide bases.

Explain how a strand of mRNA results in a specific sequence of amino acids in apolypeptide?
mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome in the cytoplasm. The ribosome reads the mRNA sequence and translates it into a specific sequence of amino acids by matching each three-base codon on the mRNA to the corresponding tRNA anticodon, which carries the corresponding amino acid. This process continues until a stop codon is reached, resulting in a polypeptide with a specific sequence of amino acids.
What brings amino acids into ribosome to be Assembled into protein?
tRNA brings amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosome to be assembled into a protein. The tRNA anticodon pairs with its complimentary mRNA codon in order to place the amino acid in the correct sequence.
Where in a cell does the attachment of two amino acids molecules take place?
The attachment of two amino acid molecules takes place in the ribosome during the process of translation. The ribosome reads the mRNA sequence and helps to link the amino acids together to form a protein chain. This process is facilitated by transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules carrying specific amino acids to the ribosome.
What is converting the info on the mRNA into a sequence of amino acids that make up a protein?
First we convert the nucleic acid into a messenger RNA, mRNA, by the process of transcription. Then, in the ribosome, we convert this mRNA unto a polypeptide ( the amino acid sequence ) by the process of translation.
Does translation occur on the ribosome?
Yes, translation occurs on the ribosome. The ribosome reads messenger RNA (mRNA) and uses transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules to decode the mRNA sequence into a specific sequence of amino acids, ultimately forming a protein.
How do you make a protein from DNA?
mRNA transcribes a strand of DNA and carries the genetic code to a ribosome, where the mRNA code is translated by tRNA into a strand of amino acids, making a protein.
