By the way, to answer the question â I have read accounts of explorers like Scott and Shackleton whose men were forced to eat penguins to survive. By all reports, they were greasy and not very tasty. Be warned.
Translation. The mRNA formed in transcription is transported out of the nucleus, into the cytoplasm, to the ribosome (the cell's protein synthesis factory). Here, it directs protein synthesis. Messenger RNA is not directly involved in protein synthesis â transfer RNA (tRNA) is required for this. The process by which mRNA directs protein synthesis with the assistance of tRNA is called translation. The ribosome is a very large complex of RNA and protein molecules. Each three-base stretch of mRNA (triplet) is known as a codon, and one codon contains the information for a specific amino acid.
mRNA Translation Is The Second Step Of Protein Synthesis. The second step of protein synthesis is mRNA Translation (or just Translation). The mRNA Translation step follows right after the first step of protein synthesis called DNA Transcription (or just Transcription). During the transcription, the information encoded in the DNA is copied to a messenger RNA sequence (mRNA), which then can move through the nucleus membrane and can reach the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. The production of proteins happens during the second step of protein synthesis process â the Translation. Sometimes protein synthesis process is referred only to Translation step, because no actual protein synthesis happens during the Transcription.
