Detailed explanation-1: -Translation takes place on ribosomes in the cell cytoplasm, where mRNA is read and translated into the string of amino acid chains that make up the synthesized protein.
Detailed explanation-2: -Translation is the process of protein synthesis and occurs on ribosomes where mRNA come from the nucleus and attached to the ribosome and in the presence of ribozyme and tRNA in ribosome mRNA translates the codon for protein synthesis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Translation takes place inside structures called ribosomes, which are made of RNA and protein. Ribosomes organize translation and catalyze the reaction that joins amino acids to make a protein chain.
Detailed explanation-4: -IS THE TRANSLATION MACHINERY PRESENT IN THE NUCLEUS? For nuclear translation to occur, essential components such as ribosomes, tRNAs, and translation factors must be present in the nucleus, in addition to the mRNA.
Detailed explanation-5: -Recall that in eukaryotes, translation can occur either in the cytoplasm or on the rough ER. Membrane and secretory proteins are synthesized in ribosomes on the rough ER whereas the cytosolic proteins are synthesized in ribosomes in cytoplasm.
