The Ribosome
Cycloheximide inhibits protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells by blocking translocation on the ribosome. It binds to the 60S subunit of the ribosome and prevents the elongation of the polypeptide chain during translation. This stops the synthesis of new proteins, leading to the disruption of cellular processes that rely on protein production.
Prevent polypeptide elongation in eukaryotes.
Yes, translation occurs on the ribosome. The ribosome reads messenger RNA (mRNA) and uses transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules to decode the mRNA sequence into a specific sequence of amino acids, ultimately forming a protein.
Gene rearrangement actually means the rearrangement of gene in chromosomes. This can occur through 3 different ways which are inversion, translocation and transposition. These can definitely alter the chromosome and cause mutations to occur.
The Ribosome
Translocation refers to the movement of materials within a cell. This can involve the transport of molecules across a cell membrane, the movement of proteins within a cell, or the transfer of genetic material between chromosomes. In plants, translocation also refers to the movement of sugars and other nutrients through the phloem tissue.

Leaching is another word for translocation.

Translocation is the term that refers to both the movement of a ribosome along a piece of mRNA during protein synthesis and the movement of a segment of one chromosome to another chromosome, either within the same cell or between different cells.
Yes, ATP is needed for translation to occur. ATP provides the energy required to drive the ribosome along the mRNA during the process of protein synthesis. Without ATP, the ribosome would not be able to move along the mRNA and synthesize proteins.
It can be. Basically most mutations (regardless of type; translocation, reversal, transcription, etc...) can cause hemophilia if they occur within a specific part of the genetic sequencing that codes for the production of the clotting factor proteins. This genetic sequence if found in a segment of the X chromosome.
Yes, it occurs in the cytoplasm, more specifically the RNA is translated via a ribosome.
