Question
Chapter 4, Problem 11Q
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The life of a protein, from DNA to mature polypeptide, and the course of travel within a cell throughout its synthesis.
Concept introduction:
In molecular biology, the central dogma explains how the genetic material in DNA is translated into proteins. The important proteins required for different cellular processes are transported in the form of vesicles. The proteins are formed by the DNA segments that have been transcribed into RNA inside the nucleus. RNA on translation forms protein. The synthesized proteins are then transported to their sites through processing and packaging in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus.
