tRNA molecules have a unique three-dimensional structure that allows them to perform their function efficiently. Each tRNA has a specific anticodon region that pairs with a complementary codon in the mRNA. The opposite end of the tRNA carries the corresponding amino acid. This specificity ensures that the amino acids are added in the correct sequence, which is essential for the protein's function. The catalytic activity in the ribosome is facilitated by the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and various ribosomal proteins. The tRNA plays a supporting role by positioning the amino acids in a way that allows the rRNA to catalyze the formation of the peptide bond.
