Question

List 3 types of RNA required for translation. Explain the function of each.?

Answer 1

1) mRNA  :  carry information stored in DNA  to the cytoplasm for translation

2)rRNA     :  forms ribosome

3)tRNA     :   bring Aminoacids from cellular pool to the ribosomes (and mRNA) for protein synthesis

Answer 2

Three types of RNA required for translation:

1. Messenger RNA-  this is a "mirror image" of the DNA encoding the amino acid sequence for the protein specified by the gene.

2. Transfer RNA-  This is an RNA molecule that "activates" the amino acid and recognizes the codon specifiying that amino acid in the mRNA sequence.

3. Ribosomal RNA- this is probably RNA that has a structural role in a complex called the ribosome, the "machine" that actually joins amino acids together to make proteins.
