7-translation Flashcards
Where does ribosome bind to in prokaryotes?
Shine Dalgarno sequences
Where does SSU of ribosome bind in eukaryotes?
5’cap
What is the difference between the 5’ cap and Kozac sequence?
the 5’ cap is the ribosomal binding site whereas the Kozac sequence is recognised by the ribosome as translational start site
what is a ribosome and what activity does it have?
a ribonucleoprotein with ribozymal activity
what is the difference between the tRNA in prokayotes and eukaryotes?
in eukaryotes it is tRNA methionine whereas in prokaryotes it is tRNA formylmethionine
what kind of activity takes place at ribosome?
peptidyl transferase activity
what to prokaryote IF 1 and 3 do?
stop LSU binding before initiation is complete
what does prokaryotic IF2 do?
bring tRNA formylmet to initiation complex
what doe eIF1 do?
blocks A site
what does eIF2 do?
brings tRNA to P site
what does eIF3 do?
stops LSU binding before initiation is complete
what occupies P site?
tRNA
What is GTP needed for?
the transfer of peptidyl on P site tRNA to A site tRNA aminocyl
what is bound to GTP?
eIF2
what does peptidyl transferase help form?
a peptide bond between the 2 amino acids
what does tRNA deacylase do?
breaks bond berween methionine and it tRNA
what does EF1 do?
helps entry of tRNA to A site
what does EF2 do?
translocates ribosome (shunts it along)
what happens in the LSU?
catalysis of peptide bond formation
what happens when termination codon enters a site?
termination
