Document Summary

Theme 2: from gene to protein module 3: translation. Translation is the process of turning the mrna sequence into the specific primary amino acid sequences of a protein. Different types of trna molecules that are not identical, each translate a specific mrna codon. Made up of a single rna strand of. 70-90 nucleotides, large degree of complementarity along stretches of trna, resulting in hydrogen bonding. Forms four double-helical segments and three characteristic loops . Anticodon region specific nucleotide triplet that forms complementary base pairs with a specific mrna codon: written in the 3" to 5" direction and align with mrna in the 5" to 3" direction. 3" end of the trna, is a protruding amino acid attachment site made up of a single stranded cca nucleotide sequence. Terminal a, is the actual point of attachment for an amino acid during trna molecule activation.
