Components of Translation. 1  Translation is the process by which the nucleotide sequence of mRNA is converveted to the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide. 2  In bacteria, this process takes place in the cytoplasm.  In the first step of the process, all the components needed for translation come together.
The initiation stage of translation brings together mRNA, a tRNA with the first amino acid, and. the two ribosomal subunits. First, a small ribosomal subunit binds with mRNA and a special initiator tRNA. Then the small subunit moves along the mRNA until it reaches the start codon (AUG).
