3 0

Sickle cell anemia is a genetic condition that distorts the shape of the hemoglobin. This reduces the capacity of the red blood cells to carry oxygen. Another effect is that the distorted red blood cells come together forming a heavy and compact collection of cells that can block the flow of blood. The sedimentation rate is increased by sickle cell anemia.

What enzyme catalyzes the attachment of an amino acid to trna?

3241004551 [841]

The answer is an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase.

<span> The aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase is an enzyme responsible for the attachment of an amino acid to tRNA. First, it binds the ATP and the amino acid which results in aminoacyl-AMP and inorganic pyrophosphate. Aminoacyl-AMP binds the appropriate tRNA molecule. The aminoacyl group dissociates from the complex with AMP and binds the tRNA molecule creating aminoacyl-tRNA.</span>
