Which of the following sites is NOT found on a ribosome?Group of answer choicestRNA exit siteSite for a tRNA covalently attached to the growing peptide chainSite that helps translation factors hydrolyze GTPtRNA charging sitemRNA binding site
Solution
The site that is NOT found on a ribosome is the tRNA charging site.
Here's why:
-
tRNA exit site: This is a part of the ribosome. It's also known as the E site. After a tRNA molecule has donated its amino acid, it moves into the E site before exiting the ribosome.
-
Site for a tRNA covalently attached to the growing peptide chain: This is also a part of the ribosome, known as the P site. This is where the tRNA carrying the growing peptide chain is
