The role of the cap recognition proteins is
to catalyze the reaction between the two amino acids on the charged tRNA molecules
to bring the large and small ribosomal subunits together to produce a functional ribosome
to allow the small ribosomal subunit to recognize the mRNA
to utilize it's helicase activity to stop complementary binding of the mRNA
Correct answer is : to allow the small ribosomal subunit to recognise the mRNA.
Reason:The small ribosomal subunit attach to the mRNA by binding to the 5 ' cap i.e 7 methyl guanosine cap at the 5' terminus of the mRNA. This helps the ribosome to scan downstream for the AUG initiation codon
