Protein Synthesis 3d Model. To download the subtitles srt for this site please use th. Next provided there is a correct match the trna is shifted to the p site and the amino acid it carries is added to the end of the amino acid chain.
Protein synthesis refers to the process whereby biological cells generate new proteins. It is balanced by the loss of cellular proteins via degradation or export. The aim of the project is to help students to visualise the process taking place and have a clear understanding of this concept.
The addition of each amino acid is a three step cycle.
Introduction this model of protein synthesis has been developed by a biology teacher design team in conjunction with the biology support service. During transcription the information encoded in the dna is copied to a rna molecule as one strand of the.

First the trna enters the ribosome at the a site and is tested for a codon anti codon match with the mrna.
