The charging of tRNAs is carried out by a set of enzymes called __________ transferases.
A) ribozymes
B) aminoacyl-tRNA
C) peptidyl
D) proteases
E) polymerases

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aminoacyl-tRNA transferases are enzymes that catalyze the attachment of amino acids to their corresponding tRNAs, a process called charging. Ribozymes are RNA molecules that can catalyze chemical reactions, but they do not play a direct role in tRNA charging. Peptidyl transferases catalyze the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids during protein synthesis. Proteases are enzymes that cleave peptide bonds in proteins. Polymerases are enzymes that catalyze the polymerization of nucleotides into nucleic acids.
