When an Aminoacyl-TRNA Synthetase Charges a TRNA It Results in the Release

Question

When an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase charges a tRNA it results in the release of which molecule?
A)mRNA
B)ATP
C)AMP
D)pyrophosphate
E)AMP and pryophosphate

Accepted Answer

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase catalyzes the attachment of an amino acid to its corresponding tRNA in a two-step process that consumes ATP, resulting in the release of AMP and pyrophosphate (PPi).
