1 Gene Expression II

2 Translation Overview Conversion of triplet code into polypeptide Takes place at ribosome in cytoplasm Involves all 3 types of RNA

3 Ribosome Made of 2 subunits – large and small 4 binding sites mRNA binds to small subunit Large subunit has 3 sites: A site – tRNA delivering next amino acid P site – hold growing polypeptide E site - exit

4 tRNA Binds to specific amino acid at 3’ end Anticodon – complementary to codon on mRNA Structure held by H- bonding

5 Translation: Initiation: Initiation factors (proteins) attach to small subunit mRNA binds to small subunit around AUG tRrna binds to start codon Large subunit binds and initiation factors released Initiator tRNA at P site

6 Elongation: Next tRNA binds to codon at A site Peptide bond forms between 2 amino acids (released from P site tRNA and attaches to A site tRNA) Translocation – ribosome moves down 1 codon

7 Termination: stop codon in A site – no complementary tRNA Release factor binds to A site – freeing polypeptide Translation animation
