Making a Protein
After the process of transcription, mRNA is made (the "m" stands for messenger) and it sends the "message" of making a protein to the ribosome.
5
Translation-The Players
Ribosomes (Protein factories)
mRNA-messenger RNA (brings instructions)
tRNA-transfer RNA (brings the parts)
amino acids-the protein parts
6
Translation-The Game
mRNA lands on a ribosome
tRNA brings the amino acids to the ribosome
Specific tRNA anticodons land on mRNA codons in a specific order
7
What are codons and anti-codons?
Codons-groups of 3 nitrogen bases on mRNA that tell tRNA which amino acid to bring or to start or stop translation
Anticodons-groups of 3 nitrogen bases on tRNA that match with codons.

9
Amino Acids
These are the building blocks of proteins. There are 20 of them and they get glued together in specific orders to make proteins.
10
Amino Acid Order
We actually know which amino acids go with each codon!
11
Multiple Choice
If the mRNA codon is AUG, what amino acid would the tRNA bring?
