Describe the structure of a tRNA molecule. Explain how a tRNA is made. What is meant by amino acid activation. What are the two catalytic sites of an tRNA synthetase. What are the components of a bacterial ribosome? What is the rate of amino acid addition during translation? What are the two functions of EF-Tu? What is the function of EF-G? Explain the steps of peptide chain elongation catalyzed by a ribosome? Where is energy used in the process of translation? Describe the structure of a bacterial ribosome. Describe translational initiation in eukaryotes. What is different between prokaryotic and eukaryotic translational initiation?
