Aminoacyl

Aminoacyl is a complex of an amino acid with a transport RNA involved in the transfer of amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Aminoacyls are key components in protein synthesis as they are the building blocks for the creation of various amino acids, which are then used to build proteins.

TRNA (transfer RNA) is one of the main components of ribosomes, which ensures the transfer of amino acids to the site of protein synthesis. The aminoacyl binds to the thymidine in the tRNA, forming a complex that is then transported to the site of protein synthesis, where it binds to ribosomes and begins the process of protein synthesis.

Aminoacyl synthesis is a key step in protein synthesis because it supplies amino acids to the site of protein assembly. Without aminoacyls, it would be impossible to create proteins, making them important components in biochemistry and biology.



Aminoacyl-tRNA: structure and functions

Aminoacyls are essential building blocks for the formation of proteins. These are organic molecules that include carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen. Functionally, they are involved in the management of amino acids. That is, the amino group acts as a universal molecule for the synthesis of protein compounds.

Several forms of aminoacytals are known, but we are only interested in 2 amino acids - methionine (Met) and isoleucine (Ile).

Mec (Mec): • The amino group of this substance (NH2) is attached to the methylene group (-CH=); • When required, this molecule attacks the electrophilic amine moiety (NHR'), where R is the substrate residue; • Next, an azocyclic compound is formed, which is further deaminated, releasing ammonia and succinic acid; • The liberated thiol works through transamination reactions to add organic or mineralized amino acids. It still contains about 42 elements.
