At which site on the ribosome does the transfer rna dock initially during elongation?
Added by Marc C.
Step 1
During elongation, the ribosome moves along the mRNA strand, reading the codons and bringing in the appropriate tRNA molecules to add amino acids to the growing polypeptide chain. Show more…

Where does the tRNA move to after the peptide bond is formed, when it is ready to exit the ribosome? directly to the cytosol P site A site E site
Madhur L.
In what order does tRNA move through the sites on ribosome complex? Explain what happens at each site.
In the initiation stage of prokaryotic translation, where does tRNA $^{\text {fMes }}$ bind? a. At the start codon in the P site b. At the start codon in the A site c. At the start codon in the $\mathrm{E}$, or entrance, site d. At the mRNA-binding site
