From DNA to protein - 3D
yourgenome・2 minutes read
The genome in human cells is divided into 23 pairs of chromosomes containing genes for making proteins, transcribed by RNA polymerase into messenger RNA. The messenger RNA is then translated into proteins by ribosomes in the cytoplasm using amino acids delivered by transfer RNA.
Insights
- Genes in human cells contain instructions for making proteins, which are produced through a complex process involving RNA polymerase, messenger RNA, ribosomes, and transfer RNA.
- The genetic information stored in the nucleus is transcribed into messenger RNA, which is then translated into proteins by ribosomes in the cytoplasm using amino acids delivered by transfer RNA.
