A eukaryotic cell has a nuclear envelope that allows tRNA molecules, but not mRNA molecules, to leave the nucleus. Which of the following processes will not be able to take place in this cell?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

tRNAs binding to codons cannot take place because this process requires mRNA to be present in the cytoplasm where ribosomes and tRNAs interact during protein synthesis. If mRNA molecules cannot leave the nucleus, ribosomes cannot read their codons to guide the binding of tRNAs with the appropriate amino acids.
