Step 1- Introduction

CENTRAL DOGMA:-

The whole process of Central Dogma involves two processes:-

1) Transcription- When DNA changes into mRNA.

2) Translation- When proteins are translated from the mRNA

In the DNA molecule, Adenine pairs with thymine, Cytosine with Guanine. But in the RNA molecule Thymine is replaced by Uracil, So in this Adenine pairs with Uracil and Cytosine will pair with guanine as in DNA.

The amino acid is translated by the set of three bases known as Codon, where AUG is the start codon and UAG, UAA, and UGA are the stop codons when in the mRNA strand these codons will result at the end of Translation
