Transfer RNA (tRNA) has a long-established role in protein synthesis. The tRNA molecule serves as an adaptor [1] between the genetic instructions written in nucleic acid sequences and the protein products encoded in genes.

“Just like a Lego house built with Lego bricks can be taken apart, and the bricks used to build something completely different” (like a cool T-Rex, a Disney castle or Lego Porsche), your body can take apart the amino acid building blocks that make up protein and re-use these to make new, totally different proteins.

Think of amino acids like Legos. Likewise, amino acids can be configured to build many different structures - from the highly specialized tissues that make up your muscles to the hormone which is used to regulate blood sugar levels.

Protein synthesis(translation) is the production of a polymer of a chain of amino acids which produces a functioning protein. It involves reading the information from mRNA (messenger RNA) to put together a chain of amino acids. Ribosomes are the structures that synthesize the protein chain.

At each point in which the mutation occurs, a uniform change in structure appears as well, creating a matched set of LEGO-like protein building blocks, capable of fitting together exactly. Mutations creating sticky patches and repeated on opposite sides of the complex can induce their stacking into long protein fibers.
