|
|
Production of a protein from an mRNA template by a ribosome is....
|
Translation
|
|
|
mRNA produceed by transcription is immediately translated without more processing or transport is in....
|
Prokaryotes
|
|
|
DNA is in the nucleus, the mRNA is created and processed, mRNA travels to cytosol, and ribosome binds to mRNA to tranlate into a protein

|
Ribosome
|
|
|
Small ribosome subunit binds to mRNA, Initiator tRNA binds to mRNA, large ribosome subunit bind to tRNA requires GTP
|
Initiation
|
|
|
Amino acids are added one by one to the preceding amino acid
|
Elongation
|
|
|
Occurs when a stop codon in the mRNA reaches the A site of the ribosome
|
Termination
|
|
|
Chemical changes in just one base pair of a gene and occur in two catagories
|
Point mutations
