Summary Introduction

Introduction: Transcription is the process in which the nucleotide sequences of a gene are transcribed into messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) sequences that code for proteins. Proteins are synthesized from mRNA by a process called translation. The rate of translation depends on the simultaneous translation of mRNA by various ribosomes and quick recycling of subunits of ribosome. The processes of translation proceed in three stages: initiation, elongation, and termination.
