No. mRNA is a substrate upon which ribosomes act, not a component of ribosomes. Ribosomes are made up of proteins and ribosomal RNA (rRNA).

What hold the ribosomes together in polysomes?

When several ribosomes are attached to one mRNA strip it is called polysome.So, mRNA holds together the ribosomes in a polysome.


What organelle does mRNA go to out in the cytoplasm?

mRNA goes to ribosomes in the cytoplasm where it is translated into proteins. Ribosomes read the mRNA code and assemble amino acids into a polypeptide chain to form the protein.


What organelle assists tRNA in translating the mRNA in the cytoplasm?

Ribosomes are the organelles that assist tRNA in translating the mRNA in the cytoplasm. Ribosomes read the mRNA sequence and help assemble amino acids into proteins based on the instructions encoded in the mRNA.


Where does mRNA travele to in a cell?

mRNA is usually targetted to ribosomes, which transcribe the sequence into a protein. Some mRNA molecules do not code for proteins but instead interract with DNA in the nucleus.


Where does mRNA take the code?

To the Ribosomes!


A message of the genes of the chromosomes are carried to the ribosomes by?

The message of the genes on the chromosomes is carried to the ribosomes by messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus, where it carries a copy of the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. At the ribosomes, mRNA is read and translated into a specific sequence of amino acids to build proteins.


What makes up the final stage of mRNA?

Ribosomes translate mRNA into proteins.


What is a cluster of ribosomes?

A cluster of ribosomes is known as a polysome or polyribosome. It consists of multiple ribosomes attached to a single mRNA molecule and is involved in the simultaneous translation of the mRNA into proteins. This allows for efficient production of proteins from a single mRNA transcript.


Do mRNA carry information from the RNA to the ribosomes?

Yes. The ribosome moves along the mRNA not the other way around as some say.


What works with mRNA to synthesize proteins?

mRNA works with ribosomes, transfer RNA (tRNA), and amino acids to synthesize proteins. The mRNA carries the genetic information, the ribosomes provide the site for protein synthesis, tRNA brings the amino acids to the ribosomes, and amino acids are the building blocks used to assemble proteins according to the mRNA codons.


What is used to carry the genetic code from DNA to the ribosomes?

The mRNA carries the genetic code needed to make a protein to the ribosome from DNA via microtubules.


What does a ribosomes do inside a cell.?

In any cell, Ribosomes translate mRNA and make proteins.
