The protein called elongation factor assists the tRNA in binding to the exposed _ at the _:

Correct answer: A. mRNA codon, A-site

  • A. mRNA codon, A-site
  • B. mRNA codon, P-site
  • C. rRNA, A-site
  • D. rRNA, P-Site

Explanation

Elongation factors are sets of proteins that are used in protein synthesis in the process of the cell cycle and elongation in some cells. In the ribosome, they facilitate translational elongation, from the formation of the first peptide bond to the formation of the last one. Each time, tRNA is guided to enter on site A.
