Where in the cell do mRNA and amino acids on tRNA's come together to make a protein?

During translation, tRNA anticodons pair with the complementary mRNA codons at the ribosomes. Each tRNA molecule carries with it an amino acid according to its specific code. As each tRNA releases its amino acid, peptide bonds form between the amino acids. After each tRNA releases its amino acid, it is free to pick up another amino acid in the cytoplasm.

During the making of protein amino acids are brought to the ribosomes by what?
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.
Describe the 5 steps in protein synthesis?
1. The DNA unzips 2. The mRNA reads the code (codon) of the DNA (Transcription) 3. The mRNA moves out of the nucleus and enters the cytoplasm to attach to the ribosomes 4.tRNA brings amino acids to the ribosomes according to the original DNA 5. The amino acids bind together and are released into the cytoplasm as a protein
What controls the bonding of specific amino acids to their correct tRNAs in a cell?
It's the enzyme amino-acyl-tRNA. It bonds the correct amino acid to the tRNA based on the anti-codon on the tRNA.
Explain how a protein molecule is synthesized from mRNA?
The mRNA brings the necessary code from the DNA to the ribosome. Meanwhile, the tRNA is bringing the anticodon to translate the codon on the mRNA, along with an amino acid which will be connected in a chain by peptide bond to form a protein. Once the tRNA and mRNA aligns themselves into the ribosome, the translation begins and more tRNAs come and go to dump their amino acids. The amino acids are all connected until a large chain is formed. The chain is then modified further to become a functional protein.
What Proteins are synthesized?
During protein synthesis, or translation, is a process that uses a messenger RNA transcript that is translated by a ribosome. Charged tRNAs carry new amino acids to the ribosome-mRNA complex. These amino acids are added to a growing polypeptide chain, with each amino acid being specifically added based on a three-nucleotide base mRNA codon-tRNA anticodon association.
What does tRNAs do?
tRNA delivers the amino acids to the ribosomes for incorporation into [nacent polypeptide] protein chains.
What is the purpsoe of tRNA?
tRNA (transfer RNA) serves as an intermediary between mRNA (messenger RNA) and amino acids. During protein synthesis, tRNAs align with the mRNA so that the codons of the two match, then the amino acids attached to the opposite ends of the tRNAs are linked to start or continue the construction of a protein (proteins are comprised of amino acids).
During the making of protein amino acids are brought to the ribosomes by what?
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.
Cells use amino acids to do what?
Well the amino acid converts into protein from the ribosome and the ribosome gets instructons from the nucleus to produce protein.
How is a codon involved in protein synthesis?
A protein is made up of a bunch of Amino Acids.Codons are used as a code for tRNA which bind to them and each tRNA has bound to the other side if it an Amino Acid, So when there tRNAs bind to the codons they all bring Amino acids which get linked together by peptide bonds and form proteins.
What is rrna and what role does it play in protein synthesis?
Ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) is the RNA component of the ribosome, the enzyme that is the site of protein synthesis in all living cells. Ribosomal RNA provides a mechanism for decoding mRNA into amino acids and interacts with tRNAs during translation. The tRNAs bring the necessary amino acids corresponding to the appropriate mRNA codon.
Where does the mRNA get translated in to protein?
RNA Translation is carried out in the ribosomes, with tRNAs serving as adaptors between the mRNA template and the amino acid MORE?
Carries amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries amino acids from the cell cytoplasm to the ribosomes during the translation phase of protein synthesis. tRNA molecules have an amino acid at one end, and an anticodon at the opposite end, which is specific for a particular amino acid and pairs with its complementary mRNA codon at the ribosome.
What joins amino acids together?
The Peptidyl transferase is an aminoacyltransferase (EC2.3.2.12) as well as the primary enzymatic function of the ribosome, which forms peptide bondsbetween adjacent amino acids using tRNAs during the translation process of protein biosynthesis.Source : Wikipedia

How do you make proteins?
DNA gets split into single strands, It is then copied to form mRNA. The mRNA is then transported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where the ribosome binds, reads the mRNA strand and tRNA's carrying amino acids are joined together. The tRNAs bind due to their complimentary nucleotides, each amino acid has a triplicate of codons, all amino acids have different codons that all code for that amino acid. As the amino acid chain grows from the ribosome the protein chain grows.
What organells makes proteins?
ribosomesProteins are made in ribosomes. mRNA transcribed from DNA carries the message of protein sequences. In ribosome mRNA interact with tRNAs to form polypeptides from amino acids.ribosomes translate proteins from amino acids. The message needed for the synthesis is coded in mRNA. mRNA is transcribed from DNA for this and exported to cytosol.
