A second tRNA binds to the second codon on mRNA4. The two amino acids (one on each tRNA) form a peptide bond betweenthem5. A third tRNA binds to the next codon onmRNA6. The first tRNA detatches and leaves the ribosome (leaving its amino acidbehind)6. This tRNA's amino acid forms a peptide bond to the second aminoacid7. This continues, forming a chain of amino acids, held together by peptidebondsNucleotide base triplets on mRNA are called CODONSRibosomeFormed of rRNA and complexproteinsrRNA = RibosomalRNALocated in cytoplasm ofcellsActs as site of proteinsynthesismRNA & tRNA combinehereDouble click this nodeto edit the textClick and drag this buttonto create a new node
