DNA transcription is a process that involves transcribing genetic information from DNA to RNA. The transcribed DNA message, or RNA transcript, is used to produce proteins.
The translation of RNA to protein is different than the synthesis of RNA from DNA (transcription). When the DNA was transcribed into RNA, one base of DNA corresponded to one base of RNA, this 1 to 1 relation is not used in the translation to protein. During this translation, 1 amino acid is added to the protein strand for every 3 bases in the RNA. So a RNA sequence of 48 bases codes for a protein strand of 16 amino acids. A certain combination of 3 bases always gives the same amino acids, so we can put the translation into a table (see below).
