________ is the process of polypeptide formation and is the second step on translation.
New cards
2
ribosomal subunits
The ________ dissociate and are returned to the cytoplasm.
New cards
3
Translation
________ occurs in three steps: initiation, elongation, and termination.
New cards
4
ribosome
The ________ transcribes the mRNA molecule until it finds a termination codon on the RNA. They are made up of ribosomal RNA and various proteins and has both a small subunit and a large subunit.
New cards
5
Termination
________ is the last step of translation and ends the process of protein synthesis.
New cards
6
MRNA
________ and tRNA unite in order to make proteins.
New cards
7
rRNA
________ is produced in the nucleus.
New cards
8
Initiation
________ occurs when all the products of translation are brought together and is the first step of translation.
New cards
9
Initiator RNA
________ is usually a form of methionine.
New cards
10
ribosomal units
The products that come from translation are ________, mRNA, and initiator RNA.
New cards
11
Multiple ribosomes
________ can attach to one mRNA simultaneously.
New cards
12
ribosome
The ________ confirms that its anticodon matches the codon on the mRNA.
New cards
13
Translation occurs in three steps
initiation, elongation, and termination
New cards
14
large subunit
"...composed of two RNA strands, a long orange strand and one yellow strand."
New cards
15
small subunit
“...is in charge of information flow during protein synthesis.”
New cards
16
methionine
"...is an amino acid found in many proteins including the proteins in food and those found in the tissues and organs of your body."
New cards
17
stop codon
"A stop codon is a genetic code that signals the end of protein manufacturing inside the cell..."
New cards
18
termination codon
A __________________ is a "trinucleotide sequence (UAA, UGA, UAG) that specifies the end of translation or transcription."
New cards
19
polypeptide
A ___________ is "a molecular chain of amino acids."
New cards
20
anticodons
" _____________ are a sequence of nucleotides that are complimentary to codons. They are found in tRNA's and allow the tRNA's to bring the correct amino acid in line with an mRNA during protein production."
