The document describes the process of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm. 1) Ribosomal RNA forms the ribosome. 2) Messenger RNA binds to the ribosome and is read. 3) Transfer RNA proofreads the mRNA and transfers amino acids. 4) Amino acids attached to tRNA bind with peptide bonds to form a protein chain. 5) The ribosome hits a stop codon and completes the protein.
