Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

tRNA (transfer RNA) has an anticodon sequence that matches a codon sequence on the mRNA (messenger RNA). It also carries a specific amino acid that corresponds to the codon sequence. The tRNA molecule binds to the ribosome and holds the amino acid in place until it is incorporated into the growing polypeptide chain being synthesized during translation.
