DNA to Protein: Synthesis Process

DNA contains the genetic code and is located in the nucleus. It is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA), which carries the code to the cytoplasm. There, ribosomes use transfer RNA (tRNA) to translate the mRNA code into proteins by assembling amino acids in the correct order. RNA has several types - mRNA carries DNA codes to make proteins, rRNA assists in protein assembly in ribosomes, and tRNA brings amino acids to the ribosome.
