How RNA gets translated into protein power: Crash Course Biology #35

How does the information from mRNA turn into a protein? It all comes down to translation, where nucleotides are translated into a chain of amino acids. In this episode of Crash Course Biology, we’ll cover codon-reading ribosomes, tRNA delivery trucks, and scientists who are using what they know about translation to save lives.

DNA & mRNA 1:13
How Translation Works 2:16
Peptides & Polypeptides 6:43
Why Proteins Matter 7:07
Dr. Katalin Karikó 9:26

    I thought the title read “How RNA gets translated into protein powder”. Time to get new glasses.

    Kids got it easy now. If I had crash coarse in grade school I woulda passed AP Biology with flying colors. It's not fair lol

    It is crazy to me how rapid these processes are, when it seems like all the components have to move randomly until they detect they're in place. But then, I guess the volume they're confined within is pretty tiny, too.

    How is it 3 tRNA can bind at a time ? I have read that there is only 2 sites, means 2 tRNA can bind. I request your reference or book or article 🙏🏻.
