Question

What is the life span of tRNA?

Answer 1

Transfer RNA (tRNA): tRNAs are tiny in nature and acts as a tool in translation of mRNA into proteins by linking the base pairs of mRNA and amino acid sequence on a polypeptide. Transfer RNAs are amino acid specific and it scans and detects the parts of mRNA coding the type of aminoacid and enables the exact placement of the aminoacid in the polypeptide chain. The physique of the tRNA molecule resembles that of a clover leaf with several extended loops. They are acceptor arm, Dihydrouracil arm, anticodon arm and TⱷC arm each having a special function.
