    During translation intiation in prokaryotes, a GTP molecule is needed in

    A) binding of 30 S subunits of ribosome with mRNA

    B) association of 50 s subunits of ribosome with initiation complex

    C) association of 30 S, mRNA with formyl-met-tRNA

    D) formation of formyl-met-tRNA

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    During the process of translation an initial complex is formed between mRNA, 30 S ribosomal subunit and methionyl rRNA. This complex is formed due to the association of $l{{F}_{1}}l{{F}_{2}},l{{F}_{3}}$initiation factor and GTP molecule.
