Formation of a peptide bond during translation is catalyzed by

a.one of the EFs.

b.the tRNA sitting in the P site of the ribosome.

c. one of the proteins within the large ribosomal subunit.

d.a rRNA in the large ribosomal subunit.

e.the Kozac sequence formed when the large and small ribosomal subunits combine.

Solutions

Expert Solution

The answers are a.one of the EFs (because EFs facilitate translational elongation, from the formation of the first peptide bond to the last one.). and c. one of the proteins within the large ribosomal subunit.(peptidyl transferase)
