Document Summary
Introduction: final product of gene expression is a polypeptide chain. Consists of linear series of amino acids. Translation of m r n a: translation of m r n a. Biological polymerization of amino acids into polypeptide chains: translation requires. Transfer r n a (t r n a) Transfer r n as (t r n as: t r n as: transfer r n as. Adapt specific triplet codons in m r n a to correct amino acid. T r n a anticodons complement m r n as. T r n as carry correct amino acids. Have essential role in expression of genetic information. Consist of ribosomal proteins and ribosomal r n as (r r n as). Consist of large and small subunits (figure 13-1): prokaryote ribosomes are 70s, eukaryote ribosomes are 80s. A comparison of the components of bacterial and eukaryotic ribosomes. Specific values are given for e. coli and human ribosomes.
