Question
The ribosome catalyzes the formation of peptide bonds. Which of the following statements is
false?
O a. The core of the ribosome is made up of proteins.
Ob. The large subunit translocates (shifts) from the small subunit to move tRNAs through the
APE sites.
Oc. Once the large and small subunits of the ribosome assemble, they will not separate until
STOP protein is in the A site.
O d. The small subunit of the ribosome is important for binding to the MRNA.
