August 7 at 7:36am. I've been observing the youth at the Gratiot County Fair for Youth f...or a number of years. I have discovered what a wonderful group of youth, leaders, parents & staff that participate in 4-H.
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.
We can say that: translation is the synthesis of a polypeptide using the genetic code found in mRNA. It still fits into our earliest outline of the central dogma. Translation is the mechanism by which the information in RNA is transformed into a protein. In this lesson, we learned the three steps of translation. Let's go back and make sure we've got all of them nice and clear. Initiation of translation occurs when mRNA, tRNA, and an amino acid meet up inside the ribosome.
