A large ribosomal subunit bonds to the initiation complex. The codon adjacent to the initiation codon bonds to its complementary anticodon, which is part of a free tRNA. The two amino acids still attached to their tRNAs align. With the help of rRNA, amino acids form peptide bonds. Then, the first tRNA is released.
A peptide bond (amide bond) is a covalent chemical bond formed between two amino acid molecules. peptide bond can be broken by hydrolysis (the adding of water). In the presence of water they will break down and release 8â16 kilojoule / mol (2â4 kcal / mol) of free energy. This process is extremely slow. In living organisms, the process is catalyzed by enzymes.
