UAA, UGA,UAG
3
Q
Which end of the mRNA holds the start codon?
A
5’ UTR
4
Q
The step of Translation cycle requiring ATP
A
Helicase and pre-initiation complex finding the start codon.
5
Q
e1F4E function
A
Binds to 5’ cap for initiation
6
Q
e1F2 function
A
Binds and delivers initiator Met-tRNA
7
Q
e1F4G function
A
Scaffold protein binding e1F4E. Required for assembly of the pre-initiation complex.
8
Q
e1F1A function
A
Binds tRNA (not Met-tRNA)
9
Q
eEF2 function
A
G protein required for ribosome translocation (in elongation)
10
Q
eRF1 function
A
TRNA mimetic that Catalyzedo the release of completed peptide– termination.
11
