Question
Chapter 13, Problem 34CONQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
Translocation of ribosomes along the mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) is in the 5’ to 3’ direction instead of 3’ to 5’ direction.
Introduction:
Protein is synthesized by the process of translation. During this process, mRNA formed from the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) by the process of transcription gets translated to form polypeptide chain. One or more polypeptide chains undergo post-translational modifications to form a functional protein that is used by the body to perform different functions like development of muscles, maintaining structure of the body, and many others.
