Question
Which of the following steps is part of the elongation cycle in translation? A) Aminoacyl-tRNA binding B) Transpeptidation reaction C) Translocation D) All of the above
Solution
D) All of the above
The elongation cycle in translation involves several steps, including:
A) Aminoacyl-tRNA binding: This is the first step of the elongation cycle where the correct aminoacyl-tRNA binds to the A site of the ribosome.
B) Transpeptidation reaction: This is the second step where the polypeptide attached to the tRNA in the P site is transferred to the aminoacyl-tRNA at the A site.
C) Translocation: This is the third step where the ribosome moves one codon towards the 3' end of the mRNA, shifting the tRNAs in the P and A sites to the E and P sites respectively.
So, all of the options A, B, and C are part of the elongation cycle in translation.

Question 17Which of the following statements about translation are true.1 pointPost-translational modifications is the binding of repressor proteins to a sequence found on an mRNA molecule.A ribosome has two subunits. The large subunit finds the mRNA to begin translation, while the small subunit has two sites for amino acids to bind.Translation is performed by ribosomes in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.Transfer RNA (tRNA) are used to bring the next amino acid to add to the polypeptide chain by matching to the next codon in the mRNA being translated. After the amino acid is added, the tRNA can then be repurposed for a different amino acid and codon pairing.
