ríbósómum
A ribosome is a complex molecular machine found within all living cells, responsible for protein synthesis. It is composed of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and proteins, and its primary function is to translate genetic information from messenger RNA (mRNA) into amino acid sequences, which ultimately form proteins. Ribosomes are essential for life, as proteins are crucial for the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues and organs.
Ribosomes are typically divided into two main types: cytoplasmic ribosomes, which are found in the cytoplasm
The structure of a ribosome is complex and highly conserved across different species. It consists of two
The process of protein synthesis occurs in three main stages: initiation, elongation, and termination. During initiation,
