1

Protein Synthesis

The biological process involving transcription (DNA to mRNA) and translation (mRNA to protein) in ribosomes.

New cards
2

Transcription

The process of copying genetic information from DNA into mRNA.

New cards
3

Translation

The process of decoding mRNA to build a specific protein.

New cards
4

mRNA

Messenger RNA that carries genetic information from DNA to ribosomes for protein synthesis.

New cards
5

tRNA

Transfer RNA molecules that bring amino acids to the ribosome based on mRNA codons.

New cards
6

Ribosomes

Cellular structures where protein synthesis occurs, assembling amino acids into a polypeptide chain.

New cards
7

Polypeptide Chain

A chain of amino acids formed during protein synthesis.

New cards
8

Genetic Code

The set of rules by which information encoded in mRNA is translated into proteins.

New cards
9

Regulation

The control mechanisms that govern the timing and rate of protein synthesis, essential for organism growth and function.
