What are the Steps of Protein Synthesis in order?

Number the following steps in protein synthesis from 1 to 8 to show their correct order?

• a. Peptide bonds form between the amino acids. b. tRNA carries an amino acid molecule to the ribosome. c. The cell requires a protein. d. When the tRNA reaches a stop codon, the mRNA leaves the ribosome, and the newly formed polypeptide is released. e. Additional tRNA’s, carrying amino acid molecules, bind with the mRNA/ribosome complex at complimentary codons as the ribosome moves along the mRNA. f. mRNA and tRNA are transcribed from DNA. g. mRNA attaches to a ribosomal subunit at a binding site forming a complex h. tRNA binds with the mRNA/ribosome complex at the starting complimentary codon.

• Answer:

  c. The cell requires a protein. f. mRNA and tRNA are transcribed from DNA. g. mRNA attaches to a ribosomal subunit at a binding site forming a complex b. tRNA carries an amino acid molecule to the ribosome. h. tRNA binds with the mRNA/ribosome complex at the starting complimentary codon. e. Additional tRNA’s, carrying amino acid molecules, bind with the mRNA/ribosome complex at complimentary codons as the ribosome moves along the mRNA. a. Peptide bonds form between the amino acids. d. When the tRNA reaches a stop codon, the mRNA leaves the ribosome, and the newly formed polypeptide is released. P.S: Although there is a slight error. tRNA synthesis is fairly independent from the requirement of any one protein, that is to say tRNA molecules are generally present in the cell even before the cell/body requires a new protein.
