Supposed a tRNA molecule bearing the anticodon for cysteine,

Supposed a tRNA molecule bearing the anticodon for cysteine, and with a cysteine bound to it, is chemically treated as to change the cysteine to alanine (the tRNA molecule and the anticodon remain unaltered). Which of the following is likely to be true? Transcription would stop when the tRNA molecule entered the ribosome Cystine would continue to be brought to the ribosomes by this tRNA Alanine would be incorporated in to be peptide in place of cystine The amino acid bound to this tRNA would not be added to the growing polypeptide
