Step 1
**Translation Initiation**: The translation initiation complex forms, which includes the small ribosomal subunit, mRNA, initiator tRNA carrying the first amino acid (usually methionine), and initiation factors. The small ribosomal subunit binds to the 5' end of Show more…

Describe the process of translation. Be sure to include: ribosome, P-site, A-site, E-site, mRNA, tRNA, polypeptide chain, amino acid, amino-acyl tRNA synthetase, codon, anticodon, and wobble.
Maitreya E.
Describe the steps of translation starting with the mRNA RBS binding the small subunit and ending with a release factor binding the stop codon and disrupting the ribosome.

Place the stages of translation in the correct order. ____ initiator tRNA leaves the ribosome ____ mRNA binds to the small ribosomal subunit ____ new tRNAs continue to bring their corresponding amino acids to the ribosome and the amino acid chain grows ____ peptide bond occurs between amino acids ____ large ribosomal subunit binds and places initiator tRNA into P-site ____ translocation occurs ____ a stop codon is reached and polypeptide breaks free; ribosome subunits separate ____ initiator tRNA binds to the start codon AUG, has anticodon UAC, and is carrying amino acid MET ____ second tRNA enters A-site and has anticodon to complement mRNA codon
