The document discusses the process of translation, where mRNA is used to synthesize proteins from amino acids. Translation occurs through three main stages - initiation, elongation, and termination - and involves various tools like amino acids, mRNA, tRNAs, ribosomes, and other factors. While similar between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, translation differs in some initiation and elongation factors used, and eukaryotic mRNA contains a 5' cap and 3' poly-A tail.
Translation in prokaryotes involves three main stages - initiation, elongation, and termination. During initiation, the small ribosomal subunit binds to mRNA and forms initiation complexes. In elongation, amino acids are linked together into a polypeptide chain as tRNAs bring successive amino acids to the ribosome. Termination occurs when a stop codon binds, causing release of the complete polypeptide. Prokaryotes regulate translation through ribosome dimerization and other factors that block initiation when nutrients are limited.
The document provides information about protein synthesis and processing. It begins with an overview of the topics to be covered, including ribosome formation, initiation and elongation factors, termination, the genetic code, tRNA aminoacylation, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, translational proofreading, inhibitors, and post-translational modifications. It then discusses the machinery of protein synthesis, including transcription, the genetic code, RNA, tRNA identity, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, aminoacylation of tRNA, and the ribosome. The mechanisms of initiation, elongation, and termination are explained in detail.
Transcription, RNA processing, and translation are the processes that link DNA sequences to protein synthesis. Translation occurs via ribosomes on the mRNA, which catalyze peptide bond formation between amino acids carried by tRNAs according to the mRNA codon sequence. Additional steps include RNA processing, modification of tRNAs and proteins, and initiation and termination factors that regulate translation.
Translation is the process by which a ribosome produces a protein using information encoded in mRNA. It occurs in four phases: initiation, elongation, translocation, and termination. Initiation involves the assembly of the ribosome, mRNA, and initiator tRNA. Elongation adds amino acids one by one to elongate the polypeptide chain based on codon-anticodon interactions. Translocation moves the tRNAs and mRNA within the ribosome. Termination releases the completed polypeptide when a stop codon is reached, with release factors catalyzing ribosome dissociation. Eukaryotes have additional initiation factors and one release factor compared to prokaryotes.

Translation is the process by which cellular ribosomes create proteins from messenger RNA (mRNA). In eukaryotes, transcription occurs in the nucleus and produces mRNA, which is then transported to the cytoplasm where translation occurs. Translation involves mRNA, transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomes, and amino acids. The mRNA sequence serves as a template for assembling amino acids into a protein chain. Translation consists of initiation, elongation, and termination phases. Initiation involves binding of the mRNA and ribosome. Elongation adds amino acids one by one. Termination occurs when a stop codon is reached, releasing the complete protein.

Elongation consists of aminoacyl-tRNA delivery, peptide bond formation, and translocation. Termination occurs when a stop codon enters the A site, triggering release factors to cleave the polypeptide from tRNA and dissociate the ribosomal subunits.
Translation , Transcription and TransductionMicrobiology
Translation is the process by which messenger RNA (mRNA) is used to produce proteins. It occurs in three main steps: initiation, elongation, and termination. During initiation, the ribosome assembles on the mRNA. In elongation, transfer RNAs (tRNAs) bring amino acids to the ribosome according to the mRNA codons, linking the amino acids into a polypeptide chain. In termination, a stop codon signals the ribosome to release the full protein. Translation allows genes encoded in DNA to be expressed as functional proteins through reading of mRNA templates.
Translation, transcription, and transduction are processes involved in gene expression and DNA transfer. Translation is the process by which messenger RNA (mRNA) is decoded by ribosomes to produce a polypeptide. Transcription is the process where DNA is copied into mRNA by RNA polymerase. Transduction is the transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another mediated by bacteriophages through generalized or specialized transduction. These processes play important roles in protein production and genetic exchange.
Translation in prokaryotes and eukaryotesNaman Sharma
Translation is the process by which the genetic code in mRNA is used to synthesize proteins. In prokaryotes, translation occurs on 70S ribosomes and requires initiation, elongation, and termination factors. In eukaryotes, translation is more complex, occurring on 80S ribosomes after mRNA is processed and exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. The major differences in eukaryotes include capping and polyadenylation of mRNA, and the use of more initiation factors.

Translation is the process by which the genetic code in mRNA is used to produce a polypeptide chain. It involves mRNA, ribosomes, tRNA, and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. The mRNA codons are read three bases at a time by tRNA molecules carrying complementary anticodons and their attached amino acids. The ribosome facilitates the formation of peptide bonds between incoming amino acids to assemble the polypeptide chain according to the mRNA template. Translation terminates when a stop codon enters the ribosome with no corresponding tRNA.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

2. Translation
Definition : - The synthesis of protein from mRNA
involves translation of the language of nucleic acids
into language of proteins.
3. TRANSLATION IN PROKARYOTES
The cellular machinery involved in translation are :-
Ribosome - Ribosomes are macromolecular machines that direct the synthesis of proteins.
And play crucial role in orienting the mRNA and amino acid- carrying tRNAs in such a
manner that the genetic code can be read accurately.
4. . tRNA molecules :-
tRNA molecules serve as adaptors, enabling sequence
of codons in mRNA to ultimately determine the amino
acid sequence of polypeptide chain.
Transfer RNA plays a vital role as an intermediary
between mRNA and amino acids.
H
5.
6. The name of the amino acid that attaches to given tRNA is indicated by superscript. For example,
tRNA molecules specific for amino acid alanine are designated as tRNAAla. After attachment, the
tRNA is now called an aminoacyl tRNA (e.g., alanyl tRNAAla). The tRNA is now said to be in its
charged form, and the amino acid is said to be activated.
• Each tRNA possesses an anticodon, which is a special trinucleotide sequence located within one
of the loops of the tRNA molecule. The tRNA molecules can recognize codons in mRNA .The
anticodon of each tRNA are complementary to one or more mRNA codons that specify the amino
acid being carried by that tRNA. The codons in mRNA are represented in the 5ˊ → 3ˊ direction,
whereas anticodons in tRNA are usually written in the 3ˊ → 5ˊ orientation. Thus, if one of the
codons for alanine is 5ˊ –GCC -3ˊ, the corresponding anticodon in tRNA
7. Aminoacyl-tRNA Synthetases :-
A minoacyl –tRNA synthetases are the enzymes responsible for linking amino
acids to their correspondin tRNAs.
8. mRNA template:-
The genetic information is encoded onto mRNA which acts as a template for
polypeptide synthesis. Prokaryotes have polycistronic mRNAs with multiple
translation start site.
12. Elongation
Three stages of Polypeptide Chain Elongation in Bacteria :-
1. An aminoacyl tRNA binds to the A site with the help of GTP-bound EF-Tu. During binding of
tRNA, GTP gets hydrolyzed and EF-Tu is released. The recycling is supported by EF-Tu.
2. A peptide bond is formed at the P site between the –COOH group of fMet (and COOH of
terminal amino acid in later cycles) and the newly arrived amino acid at the A-site.
3. The mRNA advances by three nucleotides. The peptidyl tRNA moves from the A site to the P
site. Also the empty tRNA moves from the P site to the E site. During the process, GTP bound to
EF-G gets hydrolysed
13.
14. Termination
Elongation process continues, reading one codon after another and adding successive amino acids in polypeptide chain, until any one of the
three chain-termination (stop) codons (UAG, UAA, or UGA) in the mRNA arriveLs.
enters the ribosome’s A site. Since there are no tRNAs with anticodons complementary to the termination codon, no tRNA enters the A site
of the ribosome when a termination codon is encountered. Instead, the stop codons are recognized by proteins called release factors which
possess special regions (‘peptide anticodons’) that bind to mRNA stop codons present at ribosomal A site. E. Coli has three release factors –
RF1, RF2 and RF3. Release factor1 recognizes and binds to the termination codons UAA and UAG, while RF2 binds to UGA and UAA. The
binding of RF1 or RF2 to the A site of the ribosome promotes the cleavage of the tRNA in the P site from the polypeptide chain and the
release of polypeptide. The release factor 3 binds to the ribosome and forms a complex with GTP. This binding brings about conformational
change in the ribosome, releasing RF1 or RF2 from the A site and causing the tRNA in the P site to move to the E site. In this process GTP is
hydrolyzed to GDP. Additional factors help bring about the release of the tRNA from the P site, the release of the mRNA .
