The Secrets of the DNA

Transfer RNA. It binds to amino acids and move them into place on the ribosome as needed. Each type of tRNA binds only a sin gle one of the 20 different amino acids. Amino acids attach to the appropriate tRNA at one end, which has folded into a threedimensional Lshape. Such a perfect harmony taking place in an area one billionth of a millimeter is clear evidence for Creation.

A protein is produced in the ribosome factory with the help of many enzymes and as a result of extremely complex processes within the cell. Ribosome is a complex cell organelle made up of proteins. Therefore, this situation also brings up another unreasonable supposition that ribosome, too, should have come into existence by chance at the same time. Even Nobel prize winner Jacques Monod, who is one of the most fanatical defenders of evolution, explains that protein synthesis can by no means be underestimated so as to depend merely on the information in the nucleic acids: The code is meaningless unless translated. The modern cell's translating machinery consists of at least fifty macromolecular components which are 32
