RNA Agents

Have you ever seen a 007 James Bond movie? Well then if you haven’t it the movie goes like protein synthesis, the movie is a really good action movie. Through out all the remaking’s of the 007 movies, Bond came in with new and advanced technology.

During the 007 movies, James Bond is a spy and he goes to steal information from his enemies with action. After that he would report back to the headquarters with the information he got. With all the information he would then find an end to stop his enemies evil plan. All that same process happens in protein synthesis.

In protein synthesis, there is a messenger RNA that sends messages from the DNA from nucleus to the ribosomes, messenger RNA’s are made up of amino acids.

Similar to James Bond like how he would receive information to go find and get the secret information from the enemies. Then he reports back to M, who is his boss. This process is called Transcription. Transfer RNA carries amino acids to mRNA at the ribosome. Transfer RNA would be James Bond, the headquarters would be like the headquarters, the codon would be M. Bond would go to the headquarters to receive a solution after he is done finding information. The solution has been given to the codons, which finds a particular amino acid. Next the solution would be figured out by the codon. This process is called translation. Lastly after the solution Bond would go and destroy the enemies plan and wait for another mission to destroy.

The protein Synthesis would keep going on in a never-ending cycle.
