Translation: mRNA -> protein
|
mRNA attaches to ribosome (in cytoplasm) Initiator codon "turns on" protein synthesis (AUG) tRNA (transfer RNA) pick up amino acids and bring them to ribosome Anticodon on tRNA match codon on mRNA (UAC) a.a. are joined to make a growing polypeptide protein chain, ribosome continues along mRNA Synthesis stops with terminator codon |
|
Translation Elongation
|
-Methionine brought to P site, next a.a. brought to A site -Ribosome shifts over one site, and next tRNA brings in a a.a. to the A site -Process continues until termination |
|
Translation Termination
|
-Ribosome reaches stop codon-Once stop codon is reached, elements disassemble
