Translation in Prokaryotes | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the introduction and mechanisms of translation in prokaryotes. Introduction to Translation in Prokaryotes: The process by which proteins are produced with amino acid sequences specified by the sequence of codons in messenger RNA is called translation. Translation is the first stage of protein biosynthesis. The main points about translation in prokaryotes are given [...]
