Translation

 RNA —Translation — Protein

The synthesis of protein can be divided into three phases:

a. Initiation :

• It is done by the formation of a complex between mRNA, two ribosomal subunits, and the tRNA carrying the initiating amino acid.

b. Elongation:

• A repeated cycle of amino acyl-tRNA binding, the addition of AA to the C-terminal, and the release of tRNA.

c. Termination:

• It occurs by the release of the completed polypeptide.
