Summary Introduction

Nucleotides are building blocks of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). DNA is a genetic material and it transfers genetic information one generation to another. In replication, two identical copies of DNA molecules are produced from the single DNA. The synthesis of ribonucleic acid (RNA) from a specific segment of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is known as transcription. The synthesis of the protein from the mRNA sequence in the cytoplasm is known as translation. Replication, transcription, and translation are the central dogma of biology.
