How does aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase attach amino acids to tRNA?

[Navin]

Hi could some one please explain Charging of tRNA (for dummies) ?
Like i wanted info of the enzume complex during amino acid attachement and how the acceptor arm and CCA accepts the amino acid.

I know its covered in most bio textbooks.But i can't udestand what they r saying ! I wanted like a simple explanation for dummies...

If anyone is still interested i found another link which is pretty consise but it just explains the bonding part and doesn't talk a bit about amino acyl tRNA Synthasaze.http://biochem.co/2008/08/the-attachment-of-amino-acids-to-trna-aminoacylation/

The link provided by Yoggdrasil is however bit better as it provides more detail.
