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.
Does anyone know if there an organ in the digestive tract behind the sternum and/or xiphoid process (lower sternum) that tends to swell and therefore apply pressure to the xiphoid process and make it seem like that's what's swelling? I can't believe a cartilage/bone would swell from eating.
