Ribosome (Anthromorphemics)

A small, spherical body within the cytoplasm of the cell in which protein synthesis takes place.


Ribosome (Anthropology)

A small, spherical body within the cytoplasm of the cell in which protein synthesis takes place.


Ribosome (Beauty)

Any of the RNA-rich cytoplasmic granules that are sites of protein synthesis.

Ribosome (Evolution)

The site of protein synthesis (or translation) in the cell, mainly consisting of ribosomal RNA.


Ribosome (Genetics)

The small cellular structure in which RNA translates the genetic code into proteins.

Ribosome (Genetics and Genealogy)

Organelles within a cell that are the site of protein synthesis.


Ribosome (HIV and AIDs)

A cytoplasmic cellular structure, composed of ribonucleic acid and protein, that functions in the synthesis of protein. Ribosomes interact with messenger RNA and transfer RNA to join together amino acid units into a polypeptide chain according to the sequence determined by the genetic code.


Ribosome (Health and Beauty)

Any of the RNA-rich cytoplasmic granules that are sites of protein synthesis.


Ribosome (Hepatitis C)

One of the minute granules free in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum of a cell, containing a high concentration of RNA. Ribosomes are the cell's "factories" - they are the place where all protein synthesis occurs. Messenger RNA (mRNA) messages from the nucleus are translated by the ribosomes, which build the encoded proteins.


Ribosome (Huntingtons Disease)

A tiny organelle in the cytoplasm of the cell that directs protein synthesis.


Ribosome (Microbiology)

The large, multi-subunit ribonucleoprotein cellular complex responsible for translation of mRNA into polypeptide sequences. Ribosomes are a complex consisting of ribosomal RNAs (rRNA) and several proteins.


Ribosome (Prostate Cancer)

A minute round particle composed of RNA and protein that is found in the cytoplasm of living cells and serves as the site of assembly for polypeptides encoded by messenger RNA


Ribosome (Science)

The ribonucleoprotein machine responsible for most biological protein synthesis. Recent high-resolution structural evidence supports older biochemical evidence that the catalytic heart of this machine is RNA and that the ribosome is actually a ribozyme.
