The process of synthesis of proteins involves one of the central dogma of molecular biology, according to which genetic information flows from nucleic acids to proteins. It was first proposed by Crick in the year 1958. The first step of this central dogma is the synthesis of RNA from DNA. This is known as transcription. The second step involves a [...]
After reading this article you will learn about the central dogma of molecular biology, with help of a suitable diagram. Crick's Central Dogma: DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid, carries the information necessary for an organism to grow and develop. This information is housed deep within the nucleus of a cell in genes - highly- specific sequences of nucleotides, the building blocks of [...]
