The messenger RNA strand. When the tRNA inserts itself between the two portions of the ribosome attached to the mRNA strand, the specific tRNA depends on the 3 nitrogen bases on the mRNA (the codon) that are about to be read. The tRNA that arrives has a corresponding "anticodon" to go with the codon on the mRNA. For example, if the nitrogen bases on the mRNA strand are adenine, guanine, and cytocine the tRNA will have an anticodon of uracil, cytocine and guanine. The tRNA that has the corresponding anticodon to the codon on the mRNA will bring with it a specific amino acid but it is the codon on the mRNA that ultimately decided which amino acid is next in line.

Which type of Rna can only bond to one specific type of amino acid?
transfer RNA. (tRNA) it "picks up" an amino acid at the top and the two are connected by a hydrogen bond.
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.
Does tRNA deliver amino acids to ribosome?
n aminoacyl tRNA synthetase (aaRS) is an enzyme that catalyzes the esterification of a specific amino acid or its precursor to one of all its compatible cognate tRNAs to form an aminoacyl-tRNA (wikipedia)
What nucleic acid is the physical carrier of individual amino acids?
tRNA
When building an amino acid sequence what molecule picks up the amino acids and brings them to the ribosome?
the tRna.
What is the function of tRNA.?
tRNA mediates recognition of the codon and provides the corresponding amino acid. It mainly is recognized for carrying amino acids. It then gives to it mRNA to translate the nucleotides proteins.
What are the differences between charged tRNA and uncharged tRNA?
Charged tRNA has an amino acid attached to it, ready for protein synthesis, while uncharged tRNA does not have an amino acid attached. Charged tRNA binds to the appropriate codon on the mRNA during translation, while uncharged tRNA cannot participate in translation.
The RNA that has an anti-codon and attaches to a specific amino acid is?
tRNA
Each tRNA molecule carries a specific what?
Amino acid
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.
Which type of Rna can only bond to one specific type of amino acid?
transfer RNA. (tRNA) it "picks up" an amino acid at the top and the two are connected by a hydrogen bond.
Molecule that carries amino acids to the ribosomes for incorporation into a protein?
The molecule that carries amino acids to the ribosome is transfer ribonucleic acid, or tRNA. Each tRNA molecule is specific to the amino acid it carries.
What does tRNA bring amino acid to the nucleus or ribosomes?
tRNA brings the complementary base pair to the mRNA already in place. The complementary base pair codes for a certain amino acid. So tRNA does bring the amino acids to the ribosome by bringing the correct code in the sequence to make a protein.
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
What is the rule of trna during translation?
The tRNA functions as a sort of taxi service for amino acids. Transfer RNA attaches to a specific amino acid in the cytoplasm and takes it to the ribosome, where it will pair its anticodon with the corresponding mRNA codon, and the amino acid on the tRNA molecule is added to the protein being produced. The tRNA then releases the amino acid and is free to pick up another of the same kind of amino acid, and take it to the ribosome.
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.
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.
