By the way, to answer the question â I have read accounts of explorers like Scott and Shackleton whose men were forced to eat penguins to survive. By all reports, they were greasy and not very tasty. Be warned.
Translation. The mRNA formed in transcription is transported out of the nucleus, into the cytoplasm, to the ribosome (the cell's protein synthesis factory). Here, it directs protein synthesis. Messenger RNA is not directly involved in protein synthesis â transfer RNA (tRNA) is required for this. The process by which mRNA directs protein synthesis with the assistance of tRNA is called translation. The ribosome is a very large complex of RNA and protein molecules. Each three-base stretch of mRNA (triplet) is known as a codon, and one codon contains the information for a specific amino acid.
Translation occurs inside the ribosomes, which are tiny organelles on the rough endoplasmic reticulum. A ribosome is a complex protein made of two subunits. It houses the mRNA and tRNA strands as they work through the process of translation.mRNA codons match to tRNA anticodons.ranslation occurs inside the ribosomes, which are tiny organelles on the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
