Translation: Synthesis of Proteins (With Diagram)

Translation is the mechanism by which the triplet base sequence of a mRNA guides the linking of a specific sequence of amino acids to form a polypeptide (protein) on ribosomes. Protein synthesis requires amino acids, DNA, RNAs, ribosomes and enzymes. The mechanism of protein synthesis involves four steps. The four steps are: (1) Activation of Amino Acids (2) Charging of [...]
