Explanation:

The important functions of ribosome during translation are as follows.

(a) Ribosome acts as the site where protein synthesis takes place from individual amino acids. It is made up of two subunits.

The smaller subunit comes in contact with mRNA and forms a protein synthesizing complex whereas the larger subunit acts as an amino acid binding site.

(b) Ribosome acts as a catalyst for forming peptide bond. For example, 23s r-RNA in bacteria acts as a ribozyme.

ANSWER :-

The two essential roles of ribosomes during the process of translation are as follows-

  • Ribosomes provide a surface for the binding of mRNA in the groove of the smaller subunit of the ribosome.

  • As the larger subunit of a ribosome has peptidyl transferase on the 'P' site of it, therefore, it helps in the joining of amino acids by the formation of peptide bonds.
