Diagram showing the translation of mRNA and the synthesis of proteins by a ribosome. In molecular biology and genetics, translation is the process in which ribosomes in a cell's cytoplasm create proteins, following transcription of DNA to RNA in the cell's nucleus.
Clinically, the xiphoid process plays an important role as a bony anatomical landmark in the trunk and may be damaged by improperly administered CPR. The xiphoid process is located inferior to the body of the sternum.he xiphoid process is the smallest and most inferior region of the sternum, or breastbone.
It is located behind the sternum. The esophagus runs from the throat down to the stomach. Anatomically speaking, the proximity of the esophagus and xiphoid process, explains why you feel sternum pain in GERD.he xiphoid process is very small anatomical structure. Despite of its size, it is very important because it serves as a landmark for: 1  Subcostal or infrasternal angle that is formed by the right and left subcostal margins and the xiphoid process. 2  Lower margin of the heart.
