cody constuble ribosomes
This is a ribosome structure and function in protein synthesis. This picture shows you what functions the ribosomes.
this picture shows you what a ribosome looks like up close.
What are ribosomes? Organelles are structures inside cells. In many ways, organelles perform the same functions for the cell as our organs do inside our bodies
where are ribosomes found? Ribosome s are found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The ribosome is a large complex composed of many molecules, including RNAs and proteins, and is responsible for processing the genetic instructions carried by an mRNA.
In 1957 Andrey Nikolayevich Belozersky and Alexander spirin conducted comparative analysis of bacterial DNA and RNA, and predicted existence of messenger RNA. He gave the first qualitative description of the structure of high-polymer RNA (1959-61). In 1963 he discovered the structural transitions of ribosomes and formulated one of the principles of structure of ribosomes. He discovered an artificial ribosomal self-assembly (1963-66). Proposed a molecular mechanism of the ribosome role in protein synthesis (1968). He conducted an extra-cellular protein synthesis on modified ribosomes — non-enzymatic translation (together with L.P. Gavrilova) (1970-74).
