The lectin contents in some parts of plants are higher, e.g., 390 and 75 mg of the purified lectin was recovered from 100 g Remusatia vivipara tubers (Bhat et al. 2010) and Astragalus mongholicus roots (Yan et al. 2005), respectively. Lectins are also found in seeds.
The sequence of bases on the RNA forms a code for the amino acid building blocks of the protein. The word translation seems particularly appropriate for this process since the information contained in the DNA is translated from the four-character alphabet of the bases to the twenty-character alphabet of the amino acids. The construction of the proteins is carried out on the ribosomes of the host cell.
Overview. Protein synthesis is the process by which cells build or manufacture proteins. It refers to a multi-step process through which information is transferred from DNA to RNA and then from RNA to proteins. The flow of information from DNA to RNA to proteins is one of the fundamental principles of molecular biology.here are three primary types of RNA involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA, transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA. Messenger RNA. Whereas most types of RNA are the final products of their genes, messenger RNA (mRNA) is an intermediate in the information transfer process.
