Protein Synthesis Flashcards
1
Q
[Blank] the DNA to a message which is done inside the nucleus
It is done with the help of RNA polymerase
A
Transcription
2
Q
It is the process by which the genetic code contained within a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule is decoded to produce a specific sequence of amino acids in polypeptide chain
A
Translation
3
Q
It is the main transcription enzyme that synthesizes RNA molecules from a template of DNA
A
RNA Polymerase
4
Q
- It is made from a DNA template during the process of transcription
- It carries protein information from the DNA in a cell’s nucleus to the cell’s cytoplasm
A
mRNA
5
Q
- Ribosomal RNA
- It is the main building block of non - coding RNA
A
rRNA
6
Q
- It serves as a link between the mRNA molecule and the growing chain of amino acids that make up a protein
A
tRNA
