- Choose the answer that has these events of protein synthesis in the proper sequence. (Note some steps may be missing) A peptide bond forms A small ribosomal subunit binds with the mRNA. The tRNA leaves the P site, and the ribosome translocates to the P site. The Methionine initiator-tRNA binds to the start codon.
