Translation initiation complex formation requires tRNA and mRNA to bind to the small ribosomal subunit, followed by the addition of the large subunit.
Formation of the initiation complex in translation involves tRNA binding to the smaller subunit with an initiation factor, concurrent mRNA binding to the smaller subunit with another factor, and then attachment of the larger subunit.
| Front | Formation of initiation complex in Translation |
|---|---|
| Back | First, tRNA binds to smaller unit through initiation factor Simultaneously, mRNA also binds to smaller unit through another initiation factor Then larger subunit is placed on smaller one |
