Question
- describe the processes involved in protein synthesis in eukaryotic cell. include the location of each step of the process, as well as, the primary molecules and enzymes involved in protein synthesis. use the picture below for reference. (your answer must be a minimum of 4 sentences)
Protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells involves two main processes: transcription and translation. Transcription occurs in the nucleus, where DNA is used as a template to synthesize mRNA by RNA polymerase. The mRNA then moves to the cytoplasm. Translation takes place in the cytoplasm on ribosomes. tRNA molecules bring amino acids to the ribosome, which match with the mRNA codons. Enzymes like peptidyl - transferase help in forming peptide bonds between amino acids to build the protein.
