4 letters in RNA’s genetic “alphabet” A C U G

20 letters in protein’s polypeptide “alphabet”

How to get between the two? Translation!

We know HOW to put it together, but what will actually assemble that protein?

The ribosomeribosome is our protein assembly factory!

During translation, the cell uses information from mRNA to produce proteinsproteins

“Knowing” which codon goes to each amino acid is the job of tRNAtRNA

Each tRNA molecule has the following: Amino acid Amino acid attached to

one end Region of three unpaired

bases at other end▪ (What would you call the opposite

of a codon?)▪ Anticodon!

▪ Anticodon bases are complementary to one of the mRNA codons

On the ribosome, the tRNA begins binding to its appropriate site on the mRNA

The next tRNA molecule binds to the next codon on the mRNA

The ribosome now links those two amino acids with a peptide bond

The ribosome also breaks the first tRNA-aa bond

The polypeptide (protein) chain continues to grow until a stop codon is reached (UAG, UGA, UAA)

When it reaches a stop, the polypeptide chain is released into the wild
