Trna

Short-chain rna molecules present in the cell (in at least 20 varieties, each variety capable of combining with a specific amino acid) that attach the correct amino acid to the protein chain that is being synthesized at the ribosome of the cell (according to directions coded in the mRNA).See [[transfer Rna.tRNA --> transfer rna

Re: Signaling between the ribosome and synthetase

As far as I know there is no signaling between ribosome and synthetase. tRNAs linked to amino acids are present in the cytosol. The ribosome uses them, stripping off the amino acids. When an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase encounters an unloaded tRNA, it puts on an ...

Signaling between the ribosome and synthetase

... sequence, there is a point at which the ribosome requires a particular amino acid. Is there a signaling process between the ribosome and Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase indicating a particular need? Or are all varieties of aminoacyl-tRNA floating in the cytoplasm and available for the ribosomes? I hope ...

Re: Bird-Dinosaur News

... it would have never worked. If the enzymes in the golgi apparatus had not been coded for at the same time as the ribosomes and the mRNA and the tRNA and rRNA for thousands of proteins, the proteins in our body would be improperly shaped and we would be extinct. (But how are you going to create ...

Any SOLID arguments against evolution?

4. tRNA--One of the most unexplainable things I have ever seen is tRNA--transfer RNA. As you know it brings each corresponding amino acid at the proper time and in the proper sequence. No one can explain how--it just does! ...

The ribosome translates the mRNA genetic code one nucleotide at a time into a string of amino acids that will become a protein. 4. tRNA -- One of the most unexplainable things I have ever seen is tRNA --transfer RNA.
