2. Instructions as how to join the amino
acids together – genetic code
3. An assembly line – ribosomes
4. A messenger to carry information from
DNA to ribosomes

tRNA
Transfer RNA (tRNA), reads the strand
of mRNA and translates it into a strand
of amino acids.
A molecule of tRNA has at one end a
set of three bases that will complement
the mRNA strand; this is called the
anticodon.

tRNA • If the 3 base anticodon of the tRNA
complements the 3 base codon of the mRNA,
they briefly combine.
• The amino acid is left behind when the tRNA
leaves.
• As each codon is read, the next tRNA brings in
a new amino acid and the polypeptide (protein)
chain grows.
• This requires enzymes and ATP.
