DNA translation is the process by which information in MRNA is translated in order to form a protein.
The translation process invovles ribosomes (ribonuclear protein) and tRNA (transfer RNA)
There are 2 different sizes of ribosomes 30s (small subsunit) and 50s (large subunit) in prokaryotes and 40s and 60s in eukaroytes. These 2 come together in order to translate a strand of mRNA
The role of the small ribosomal subunit is to initate translation - binds at the ribosomal binding site…
