Abstract

Translation of mRNA into an amino acid sequence is mediated by ribosomes. tRNAs deliver amino acids to the growing polypeptide chain by pairing to the cognate codons of the mRNA. The concentration of cellular tRNAs is not uniform and varies upon development, disease and environmental stress. The different availability of tRNAs affects the ribosomal speed and hence protein production.
