Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Translation is the process, in which the nucleotide sequence in mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) is read as a genetic code for the amino acid to produce the polypeptide chain with a certain sequence of amino acids. The mRNA attaches to the ribosome and tRNA (transfer RNA) brings the amino acids to the ribosome. Initiation is the first stage of translation.

Formation of the 70S ribosomal initiation complex for prokaryotic translation requires: a.tRNAfMet b.tRNAMet c.GTP d.EF-Tu e.IF-2 f.Mn2+
During the termination of translation, what is the correct polypeptide sequence which will be released by the ribosome? 5' - AUG - UAU - CUC - UUU - 3' (mRNA codon sequence) 3' - UAC - AUA - GAG - AAA - 5' (tRNA anticodon sequence) A.START - Tyr - Leu - Phe B. Tyr - Ile - Glu - Lys  C. START - Ile - Glu - Lys D. Ser - Tyr - Gly - Cys
Find the events from prokaryotic translation from the list below and list them below in order, by letter, from earliest to latest during translation A. Incoming tRNA occupies the A-site B. Small ribosome binds to Shine Dalgarno sequence C. 5’ methyl cap binds small ribosome D. Large ribosome subunit binds the small ribosome subunit E. P-site tRNA peptide is attached to the amino acid of the A-site tRNA. F. f-Met tRNA binds to P site G. Small ribosomal subunit binds mRNA H. Peptide released from complex.
