The information in DNA is not directly converted into proteins, but must first be copied into RNA. DNA transcription is the process in protein synthesis that involves the transcribing of genetic information from DNA to RNA.
RNA is a single-strand molecule; DNA is a spiral of two cross-connected strands. DNA carries information. Part of the DNA in a cell is genes, which code for protein molecules. Each type of receptor, or enzyme, or neurotransmitter, has a stretch of DNA in which its sequence of amino acids is coded. The code-to-primary-structure ratio is three-to-one: three bases (called a codon) per amino acid.
