Where does protein and enzyme synthesis take place?

Question

Hi guys, Im wondering about this question just for the sake of it. I appreciate your help on helping me solve it. Thank you.

Answer 1

Enzymes are a type of protein, so they are made at the same place.

Protein and Enzyme synthesis take place in cells through translation. With translation, DNA in the nucleus is unraveled to make mRNA. This mRNA leaves the nucleus and goes out into the cell where tRNA is made from the mRNA. The mRNA has a series of codons (3 nucleotides per amino acid). Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. The tRNA makes anticodons that match with amino acids in the cell. This occurs at cellular organelles called ribosomes. The amino acids link together to form chains through peptide bonds.

There are 4 levels of structure that proteins have.

Primary: Amino acid chain
Secondary: The chain folds and spirals into alpha helices and beta sheets.
Tertiary: These spirals and folds coil through other bonds such as sulphide bonds.
Quaternary: Multiple groups of these chains combine to create a protein.

I hope that this helped.

Answer 2

Protein synthesis takes place on the ribosomes.

Enzymes are essentially proteins which act as a biological catalyst to speed up chemical reactions, it is synthesized the same as the proteins.

Answer 3

None of these answers are totally correct, yes protein translation occurs in ribosome, but ribosomes exist both in the cytoplasm and the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER).

Answer 4

Proteins are synthesized on ribosomes, either free floating in the cytosol, or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.

Answer 5

Evolution is how we came to be. What worked survived, what didn't died. And DNA is protein.

Answer 6

Yes it does happen on the ribosomes but they are physically located in the cytosol.

Answer 7

PROTEIN SYNTHESIS: TRANSLATION

takes place in ribosomes IN CYTOPLASM

Answer 8

in the DNA.
