Question

How many different types of macromolecules must be minimally contained in a cell-free protein synthesizing system from E. coli? Count each type of ribosomal component as a different macromolecule.

Short answer

Different macromolecules minimally contained in cell-free protein.

Step-by-step solution

Definition of Macromolecule

A protein, nucleic acid, or synthetic polymer is an example of a molecule with a significant number of atoms.

Determining mRNA with prokaryotic control sites

The ribosome of E. coli comprises proteins and RNAs. The small subunit contains proteins, while the large subunit has proteins.

• mRNA is required.
• tRNAs for .
• The aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases that are cognate.
• There is one .
• Three Initiation Factors.
• EF-Tu, EF-Ts, and EF-G are elongation factors.
• There are four termination factors: .
