Some toxic tips destroy DNA and others destroy transfer RNA, which is essential for protein synthesis.

The smaller subunit also binds to transfer RNA, which connect the genetic code on one end with amino acids on the other.

The amino acids are stitched together into proteins by the larger subunit, which also binds to the transfer RNA.

Another form of RNA, transfer RNA, carries amino acids, the components of proteins, as ingredients for the proteins.

Each segment, or amino acid, corresponds to a trio of bases in the message that, in turn, complement trios encoded in transfer RNA.

Proteins are made from amino acids that have been activated by attachment to a transfer RNA molecule through an ester bond.

In the first state, transfer RNA is bound to the two subunits in a configuration that occurs after the ribosome has made and released a protein.

The key reaction in this decoding process is the attachment of a particular amino acid to one end of a small RNA molecule known as a transfer RNA.
