ribosome
Translation takes place at the ribosome and it’s the process of the
ribosomes creating proteins from smaller amino acids. How did
we get to the ribosome? Let’s review.

NEXT
A process called transcription starts in the nucleus, where an enzyme called
RNA polymerase splits the DNA molecule.
Next, free floating mRNA nucleotides bond to the open DNA molecule. next
Once finished, the mRNA breaks away and exits the nucleus. The mRNA will
then join a ribosome. Now, the process of translation will begin. next
BACK
Translation Process
ribosome
The ribosome will read 3 mRNA nucleotides at a time. The 3
mRNA nucleotides are called a codon. Each codon will match
for the delivery of a specific amino acid.
Remember that amino acids link together to create a single

protein.
It took scientists many years of experimentation to learn which
codon creates which amino acid.

BACK
Find AUG… This code calls
for the delivery of the amino
acid called methionine. Give it
a click.
The Genetic Code
This table is the same for almost every organism on Earth. In the chart
above, click on the “AUG” codon.
BACK
AUG codon
Find CCA… This code calls
for the delivery of the
amino acid called proline.
Give it a click.
Correct! Whenever an AUG codon is read by the ribosome, the amino acid called
METHIONINE will be delivered to the ribosome. Notice how the chart says “start
codon” below methionine? This also means that the codon AUG will activate the
ribosome to start the process of making a protein.
Click on the CCA codon.
BACK
CCA codon
Find the Stop Codons…
These codes tells the
ribosome to stop making a
protein. Give one a click.
Correct! Whenever a CCA codon is read by the ribosome, the amino acid called
PROLINE will be delivered to the ribosome. This process will continue until a “Stop
codon” is read by the ribosome. This is how the ribosome knows that a protein is
finished.
Click on any of the STOP CODONS.
BACK
Transfer RNA
Correct! Stop codons tell
the ribosome to stop
making a protein.
So who…or what…is
delivering these
amino acids? In the
cytoplasm, there are
countless amino acids
and other molecules
called transfer RNA
(tRNA). tRNA will pick
up the proper amino
acid and deliver it to
the ribosome.

to start over if you would like to do some review.

I will help you get started. The first codon is AAG. Find AAG on the
mRNA codon chart. AAG codes for lysine. This is the amino acid
that tRNA will deliver.
