Ribosomes are large ribonucleoprotein particles that contain more RNA than protein and dissociate into large and small subunits.

Aminoacyl-tRNA Formation Is Very Accurate, the frequency of mischarging is very low; typically, less than 1 in 1000 tRNAs is charged with the incorrect amino acid.

Valyl-tRNA synthetase can sterically exclude isoleucine from its catalytic pocket because isoleucine is larger than valine.

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes

The protein-coding region(s) of each mRNA is composed of a contiguous, non-overlapping string of codons called an open reading frame (commonly known as an ORF).

Translation starts at the 5’end of the ORF and proceeds one codon at a time to the 3’end. The first and last codons of an ORF are known as the start and stop codons.
