Q. Amino acid sequence, in protein synthesis is decided by the sequence of

Jharkhand CECEJharkhand CECE 2013

Solution:

In the process of protein synthesis, the messenger RNA (wRNA) is responsible for carrying the genetic code transcribed from DNA to specialised sites within the cell (called ribosomes) where the information is translated into protein composition. The sequence of amino acids in a particular protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in mRNA. Sequence of iRNA, cDNA or rRNA do not decide the amino acid sequence in protein synthesis.
