Synthesis and Processing of the Protein The Role of the Ribosome in Protein Synthesis Ribosomes coordinate protein synthesis by placing the mRNA, aminoacyl-tRNAs and associated protein factors in their correct positions relative to one another. Components of ribosomes, including the rRNAs, catalyze at least some of the chemical reactions occurring during translation. Regulation of translation initiation Global regulation, which involves a general alteration in the amount of protein synthesis occurring, with all mRNAs translated by the cap mechanism being affected to a similar extent.
