Subjective Type

List two essential roles of ribosome during translation.

Solution

The role of the ribosome during translation are as follows:
a) Ribosome serves as a site for protein synthesis.
b) Bacteria have 70S ribosome. The 30S subunit has 16S rRNA and 50S subunit has 23S and 5S rRNA. 23S rRNA has peptidyl transferase activity and catalyzes the synthesis of peptide bond formation between amino acids in bacteria.
