Practice question
Question
Poly(A) tail assists translation by binding
Explanation
PABP accurately identifies the binding site, binding partner, or molecular interaction described in this question. In Acid, Base, pH, molecular recognition and binding specificity are governed by complementary shape, charge, and hydrophobic interactions between molecules. PABP binds at the specified location due to its structural complementarity and specific non-covalent or covalent interactions. The other options (RNA pol II, ribosome directly, and tRNA) describe binding to different sites, involve different types of molecular interactions, or represent incorrect binding partners.
