At which site on the ribosome does the transfer rna dock initially during elongation?
Madhur L.
How did the A site of the ribosome get its name? a. It is where amino acids are joined to tRNAs, producing aminoacyl tRNAs. b. It is where the amino group on the growing polypeptide chain is available for peptide-bond formation. c. It is the site occupied by incoming aminoacyl tRNAs. d. It is surrounded by a-helices of ribosomal proteins.
