The organelle that acts as a connector to help convert the nucleotide sequence of mRNA into the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide during translation is the ribosome.
<h3>What is translation?</h3>
The translation is a biological process during which the genetic codes in mRNA are translated into their respective amino acids of a polypeptide during gene expression.
Prior to translation, genes are first transcribed from their nucleotide sequences of DNA to genetic codes in mRNA. The mRNA is then processed to remove non-coding sequences and some other treatments.
Thereafter, the mRNA binds to the ribosome in the cytoplasm, and in association with the tRNA, the genetic codes are translated to their respective amino acids one after the other. A peptide bond forms to connect successive amino acids to form the primary structure of a protein.
Thus, in order to convert the nucleotide sequence of mRNA into the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide during translation, the ribosome plays a central role and can be considered a connector.
