What statement best describes the function of tRNA in translation?
tRNA carries specific amino acids to the ribosome during translation. It recognizes the codon on the mRNA through its anticodon and brings the corresponding amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain.
How are amino acids transfered to the ribosome into a growing polypeptide chain?
The ribosome uses tRNA that matches the current codon (triplet) on the mRNA to append an amino acid to the polypeptide chain. This is done for each triplet on the mRNA, while the ribosome moves towards the 3' end of the mRNA.
Is tRNA attached to an amino acid?
Amino acids are attached to one end of the transfer RNA molecules and the other end of the tRNA moleule attaches to the a-site of the ribosome.
When building an amino acid sequence what molecule picks up the amino acids and brings them to the ribosome?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) is the molecule responsible for picking up amino acids and bringing them to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and has an anticodon that pairs with the complementary codon on the messenger RNA (mRNA) being translated.
What element transports and positions amino acids?
The element that transports and positions amino acids is tRNA (transfer RNA). tRNA molecules carry specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis and ensure that the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain according to the sequence of mRNA.
The structure that carries amino acids to the ribosome?
The structure that carries amino acids to the ribosome is called transfer RNA (tRNA). Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and binds to the corresponding mRNA codon on the ribosome during protein synthesis.
How does amino acids get to the site of protein synthesis?
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.
Is an amino acid a mRNA or tRNA?
An amino acid is not mRNA or tRNA. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, while mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome to be translated into a protein, and tRNA is responsible for bringing specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.
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.
TRNA brings amino acids to the nucleus or ribosomes?
The ribosome 'reads' the mRNA message , and tRNA takes amino acids to the ribosome, in the sequence that is determined by the mRNA. This all takes place in the cytoplasm [in the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum - RER], not the nucleus.
What statement best describes the function of tRNA in translation?
tRNA carries specific amino acids to the ribosome during translation. It recognizes the codon on the mRNA through its anticodon and brings the corresponding amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain.
What happens to the two amino acids carried by the two tRNA's inside a ribosome?
The two amino acids carried by the two tRNA's inside a ribosome, bind togather with a peptide bond to elongate the protein chain.
What is required to produce proteins from amino acids?
An mRNA transcript carries the genetic code to the ribosome. tRNA molecules bring amino acids to the ribosome for translation. The amino acids polymerize into functional proteins.
What molecule brings animo acids to the ribosomes?
The tRNA molecule brings amino acids to the ribosome.
Nucleic acid carries the amino acids to the ribosome?
Short answer to this is tRNA. Long answer: aminoacyl-tRNAsynthetase is an enzyme with two pockets, one for tRNA and one for a specific amino acid. This enzyme is responsible for joining tRNA and amino acids where they then travel to a ribosome and begin the process of translation
Why are amino acids which compliment mRNA called tRNA?
Amino acids are not called tRNA. tRNA molecules carry amino acids to the mRNA on the ribosome. A tRNA molecule has a 3-base anticodon that is complimentary to a apecific mRNA codon, which allows the tRNA to place the amino acid in the correct sequence.
What molecules transport amino acids from the cytoplasm and the ribosome for translation?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules are responsible for transporting amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosome for translation. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and recognizes the corresponding codon on the mRNA during protein synthesis.
