Solution

Aminoacylation is the process of adding an aminoacyl group to a compound it. produces tRNA molecules with their CCA three prime ends covalently. Once the tRNA is charged, a ribosome can transfer the amino acid from the tRNA onto a growing peptide, according to the genetic code. Aminoacyl tRNA, therefore, plays an important role in RNA translation, the expression of genes to create proteins.
