Answer to Question #166511 in Genetics for Osei

Question

Summarize the steps involved in charging tRNAs with their appropriate amino acid

Answer 1

The two process that involve protein synthesis are transcription and translation. Transcription process involve double stranded DNA in the nucleus which copies the singe stranded RNA(mRNA).The mRNA move from the nucleus to ribosomes in the cytoplasm to give a message on how to make proteins from genes. The translation process transfer RNA (tRNA) that carries amino acids to the ribosomes to make the polypeptide chains of amino acids.
