What is the most challenging part of understanding translation?

The process through which the code of an mRNA molecule is translated into a sequence of amino acid residues is complicated. But what I would like you to tell me, and discuss with your classmates, precisely what it is about the process that you find hard to understand.

4-3.  To demonstrate an understanding of translation elongation, we’ll start somewhere in the middle of translation of a polypeptide.  At this moment, the entire ribosome (the small and large subunits) is bound to the mRNA, and there is a tRNA bound at the P-site.  Attached to the 3’-end of this tRNA is the start of the polypeptide- Amino-Met-Leu-Ser-Ala-Phe-tRNA At this starting point, there is no other tRNA bound to the ribosome, and the next codon is 5’-UGG-3’ When the next tRNA binds to...

A codon is a series of three bases in mRNA which is equivalent to the 3 bases in DNA; this triplet code corresponds to one amino acid. Once the mRNA is attached to a ribosome, it can assemble the protein by translating from the “language” of nucleic acids to the “language” of amino acids. What is the processed called? In order to synthesize a protein molecule, amino acids need to be aligned in the proper sequence along the RNA sequence....

The genetic code was elucidated through the use of polyribonucleotides synthesized either enzymatically or chemically in the laboratory. Given what we now know about the genetic code, how would you make a polyribonucleotide that could serve as an mRNA coding predominantly for may Phe residues and a small number of Leu and Ser residues? What other amino acid(s) would be encoded by this polyribonucleotide, but in smaller amounts?

What would happen to a protein like signal peptidase if you removed its signal peptide but added a nuclear localization signal (NLS)? It would end up in the nucleus. It would end up in the cytoplasm It would be secreted None of the above What would happen to a secreted protein (e.g. insulin) if you produced it from an mRNA missing the sequence encoding the signal peptide? It would be properly secreted, though it might not fold correctly. It would...
