All of the following components are part of the scanning complex in eukaryotic translation initiation EXCEPT…

Which correctly describes ribosomes?

During eukaryotic translation termination, [ans1] base pairs with the stop codon, catalyzing  [ans2].

Select all of the following that are true of prokaryotic translation initiation.

If a cell gets stressed out from lacking amino acids, eukaryotic cells turn off translation at the [ans1] stage.  The stressful conditions activate [ans2] which phosphorylate [ans3], blocking the function/activity of [ans4].

A polar amino acid within a protein can interact  _________________.    (Select all that apply.)

A protein segment contains a region rich in Thr and Asn (individual aa structures given below).  The intramolecular interaction this segment is most likely to have is [ans1] and the most likely intermolecular interaction is [ans2].         

The UPR stops translation in the cell by …

Select all that are true of the peptidyl transferase used in translation.

________ is/are made on the membrane-bound ribosomes of the rough ER.  (Select all that apply)
