What is the major difference between bacterial ribosomes and eukaryotic ribosomes that makes it possible to target bacterial ribosomes without harming our own cells?
Which of the following are stages of translation? Select all that apply. ---A tRNA binds to the second codon and its carried amino acid forms a peptide bond with methionine. ---When the ribosome reaches a stop codon, its subunits detach, and the mRNA and new polypeptide are released. ---As the ribosome moves from codon to codon, amino acids brought by successive tRNAs to the ribosome form a growing polypeptide. ---The binding of a tRNA to the third codon causes the ribosome to release the first tRNA and move to the next codon. ---Ribosomal subunits and a tRNA carrying methionine converge on the start codon of an mRNA.
