A synthetic mRNA added to a cell-free protein-synthesizing system produces a peptide with the following amino acid sequence: Met-Pro- Ile-Ser-Ala. What would be the effect on translation if the following components were omitted from the cell-free protein-synthesizing system? What, if any, type of protein would be produced? Explain your reasoning. a. Initiation factor 3 b. Initiation factor 2 c. Elongation factor Tu d. Elongation factor G e. Release factors RF-1, RF-2, and RF-3 f. ATP g. GTP
