What cellular structure assembles amino acids into polypeptides?

Ribosomes are the cellular structures responsible for assembling amino acids into polypeptides during the process of protein synthesis. Ribosomes are composed of rRNA and proteins and can be found in the cytoplasm or on the endoplasmic reticulum.


Are ribozomes carbs proteins lipids or nucleic acids?

Ribosomes are not carbohydrates, lipids, or proteins; they are composed of nucleic acids (RNA) and proteins. Ribosomes play a crucial role in protein synthesis within cells by using the information encoded in messenger RNA to assemble amino acids into proteins.


Organelles at which amino acids are hooked together to make protiens?

Its the tRNA molecule which assembles amino acids together inside of the ribosome. So technically, you could say that it is the ribosome which assembles them. This is done through a process called 'protein synthesis', more specifically at the translation level.


Where are protiens made?

during translation protein builds from the mRNA in the ribosomes. tRna decodes mRNA into a protein. It uses the codon s and anticodons to help build it up. The tRNA brings a specific amino acid.


What molecule is broken down into amino acids?

Proteins are broken down into amino acids through the process of digestion in the body. Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids linked together. Once proteins are broken down during digestion, the individual amino acids are absorbed and used by the body for various functions.

Proteins are made on the what?

Proteins are made on the ribosomes within cells. The ribosomes read the instructions from messenger RNA (mRNA) to assemble amino acids into a specific order, forming a protein molecule.


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 types of RNA brings the amino acids to the ribosomes?

The type of RNA that brings amino acids to the ribosomes is TRNA or Transfer RNA.


Which cell organelle puts amino acids together in a specific order to make proteins?

This would be the function of the ribosomes. The ribosome assembles amino acids into proteins. Ribosomes are small structures made of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and protein. (RNA is a molecule similar in structure to DNA.) When cells need to make proteins, they copy the instructions for the protein from the DNA of the cell by making a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA travels to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm of the cell. Another type of RNA molecule, called transfer RNA (tRNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome. The tRNA molecules decode the mRNA by binding to it, so that the tRNAs bring in the correct amino acids according to the instructions in the mRNA. The ribosome helps keep this whole process organized and helps form the bonds between the amino acids to create a chain of amino acids. A chain of amino acids is called a polypeptide chain. Polypeptide chains fold up to form proteins.


Proteins in cells are assembled by structures called?

Ribosomes assemble amino acids into proteins.


Are proteins chains of ribosomes?

No, proteins are not chains of ribosomes. Proteins are macromolecules made up of chains of amino acids, while ribosomes are cellular structures responsible for protein synthesis. Ribosomes read the genetic information in mRNA and use it to assemble amino acids into a specific protein chain.


What do the ribosomes create?

rRNA and associated proteins creates ribosomes.


What are organelles at which amino acids are hooked together to make proteins?

ribosomes


Molecules bring to the ribosomes?

Messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules bring the genetic code from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules bring amino acids to the ribosomes during protein synthesis. Ribosomes use these molecules to build proteins according to the mRNA code.
