Protein Synthesis: From mRNA to Polypeptide Chain
Ribosome Binding Sites
In the ribosome, there are three different attachment sites for tRNA: the P site, where the polypeptide chain is formed; the A site, into which the amino acid (AA) is going to join the protein chain; and the E site, where the tRNA is located before leaving the ribosome.
