Initiation
Ribosome binds to mRNA at the start codon AUG, and the initiator tRNA becomes attached to the amino acid methionine and pairs with the start codon on the mRNA
2
New cards
Elongation
Ribosome reads mRNA codons, matches them with complementary tRNA anticodons, and links amino acids together to form a growing polypeptide chain
3
New cards
Termination
Ribosome encounters a stop codon (UAA, UAG, UGA) on the mRNA, release factors bind to the ribosome, and the completed protein is released.
