Question

Ql Select the best statement regarding translation A. Peptide growth is in the N terminus to C terminus direction and translation occurs in the 5' to 3' direction on the mRNA. Peptide growth is in the N terminus to C terminus direction and translation occurs in the 3' to 5' direction on the mRNA. C. Peptide growth is in the C terminus to N terminus direction and translation occurs in the 5' to 3' direction on the mRNA. Peptide growth is in the C terminus to N terminus direction and translation occurs in the 3' to 5' direction on the mRNA.

Explanation / Answer

1-A

2-D

Note- the peptide chain is formed in 5’ to 3’ direction of mrna which form amino acid chain by adding amino group in 3’ direction of its chain thus from N to C direction.

Changing to UAA will lead to stop codon
