Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis
Chat with our AI personalities
The majority of protein synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm of a cell. This is where ribosomes, the cellular machinery responsible for synthesizing proteins, are located. Some proteins are also synthesized in other organelles like the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria.
Protein synthesis occurs on ribosomes found in the cell.
Within the Cell cycle, Dna synthesis occurs during the S [synthesis] phase.
Protein synthesis primarily occurs during the translation phase of protein production. This is where messenger RNA (mRNA) is decoded by ribosomes to produce specific amino acid sequences based on the genetic code.
Protein synthesis takes place in the ribosomes and also in the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER).
The steps in protein synthesis are Transcription, Modification and Packaging, and lastly Translation.
