Protein Synthesis Process Quiz

mRNA is transcribed from a DNA template and carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome for translation.

Each amino acid attaches to its proper tRNA with the help of a specific enzyme and ATP.

The anticodon on tRNA pairs with the complementary codon on mRNA during translation.

<p>Initiation involves the coming together of mRNA, the first tRNA, and the ribosomal subunits to start the synthesis of a polypeptide chain.</p> Signup and view all the answers
