|
What is the linking of an amino group to the calboxyl group called?

translation
|
|
|
How do protien chains grow another amino acid?

|
|
Where does protein synthesis occur?

|
|
Where does transcripition begin?

|
What does the RNA do after it is formend by mRNA?
|
Breaks free form the DNA and is modified(eukaryotes-not prokaryotes) before leaving through nuclear pores, then mRNA attaches to end of ribosome(initiation), then tRNA attaches correct amino acida, then connected by peptide bonds
