5.Molecular Basis of Inheritance
medium
Select the correct statement regarding protein synthesis.
A
When the small subunit of the ribosome encounters an $mRNA$ the process of translation begins.
B
Peptidase catalyses the formation of peptide bond.
C
$UTRs$ are present between the start codon and stop codon.
D
At the end of translation, the release factor binds to the initiation codon.
Solution
Peptidase catalyses the breaking of peptide bond. The $UTRs$ are present at both $5 \phi$-end (before start codon) and $3'-end$ (after stop codon). At the end of translation release factor binds to the stop codon, terminating translation and releasing the complete polypeptide from the ribosome.
