Summary Introduction

To determine: The list of similarities and difference in the events of initiation, elongation, and termination stages of translation.

Introduction: The gene expression is a highly complex but coordinated process. The information present in the DNA is transferred to RNA molecule by the process called transcription in which dsDNA provides a template for the synthesis of the RNA molecule. The translation, on the other hand, is the passing of the information transferred from mRNA to make a corresponding peptide chain according to the information coded in the mRNA molecule.

Define both transcription and translation. In addition, describe the role(s) of each of the following in the processes of gene expression and protein synthesis:  DNA, mRNA, tRNA, rRNA, ribosome(s), RNA polymerase, codon, anticodon, amino acid(s) and polypeptide(s). Be detailed in your answer.
GTP hydrolysis is used multiple times during the course of protein synthesis to advance the process forward, often irreversibly. Provide an example of a GTP-regulated step and its associated GTP binding factor that regulates a step during A) translation initiation, and also B) one that is associated with the translation elongation phase.
Briefly, describe one mode of post-translational modification that occurs once translation is finished.
