Question:
Translation Initiation
Author: AMRIT KAURAnswer:
- The initiation of translation starts when the small ribosomal subunit binds with mRNA and a special initiator tRNA - The initiator tRNA carries the amino acid methionine - Then the small subunit moves along the mRNA until it reaches the start codon (AUG) - Proteins called initiation factors bring in the large subunit that completes the translation initiation complex
