Question

Some antibiotics inhibit trna from delivering amino acids to the ribosome. what process cannot be completed?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is translation.

Translation is the process by which amino acid polypeptide chain is synthesized based on the sequence provided by mRNA.

Ribosomes are considered as the sites of protein synthesis.

mRNA is placed between the small and large sub-units of the ribosomes.

Specific tRNA decodes the codon present in mRNA with help of anti-codon present in int.

Based on this codon-anti-codon interactions, specific tRNA adds specific amino acid to the growing polyeptide chain in the ribosome (in one at a time manner).

Many tRNA(s) are required to build a single polypeptide chain which eventually transforms into a functional protein after several modifications.

Hence, if tRNA is inhibited from delivering amino acids to the ribosome the process of translation would be inhibited.
