Question
Chapter 31, Problem 3P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The compound initiating the bacterial protein synthesis should be determined.
S-adenosylmethionine tRNA
Methionyl tRNA
N-formyl methionyl tRNA
N10-formyltetrahydrofolate tRNA
Concept introduction:
Protein synthesis (translation) is a process of generating new protein sequences inside the cell. This process takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. This process is balanced by the degradation or export of cellular proteins. It is constituted of three steps, initiation, elongation, and termination.
