mRNA and tRNA

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define mRNA and tRNA**: - mRNA stands for messenger RNA, while tRNA stands for transfer RNA. Both are types of ribonucleic acids (RNA). 2. **Function of mRNA**: - mRNA serves as a template for protein synthesis. It carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where proteins are synthesized. ...

    (a) Name the enzyme responsible for the transcription of tRNA and the amino acid the initiator tRNA gets linked with. (b) Explain the role of initiator tRNA in initiation of protein synthesis.

    Select the incorrect statement about tRNA. (a) tRNA possess an amino acid acceptor at 3' end for binding of amino acids. (b) tRNA is also called soluble RNA. (c) Only single tRNA exists for all 3 stop condons (d) tRNA posses an anticodon loop that has bases complementary to the code.

    The following statements describe the process of translation. I. An amide linkage is formed between adjacent amino acids. II. Hydrogen bonds are formed between the anticodon and the codon. III. mRNA binds to the ribosome. IV. tRNA enters the ribosome carrying a specific amino acid. In which order does this process take place?
