Cell Protein Synthesis

Question

Name the organelle that performs Protein synthesis in a cell.

Answer

Ribosomes

What is Cell Protein Synthesis?

Cell protein synthesis refers to the complex biological process through which cells create new proteins.

Ribosomes, which are cellular structures synthesised in the nucleolus, form sites for protein synthesis. They facilitate the translation of genetic information encoded in messenger RNA (mRNA) into functional proteins. Ribosomes read the mRNA's sequence of codons and match them with corresponding transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules carrying specific amino acids.
