Question
Explain the role of initiator tRNA in the initiation of protein synthesis.
Advertisements
Solution
Initiator tRNA carries amino acid methionine at its amino acid binding site and has anticodon UCA at its anticodon binding site. Initiator tRNA binds with the codon (AUG) present on the mRNA and in this way the initiator tRNA plays a role in the initiation of protein synthesis.
