To read RNA and synthesize proteins, the process begins with transcription, where DNA is converted into messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA then undergoes translation in the ribosome, where transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules, each carrying specific amino acids, match their anticodons to the codons on the mRNA. This sequential pairing guides the assembly of amino acids into a polypeptide chain, which ultimately folds into a functional protein. Thus, the genetic code in RNA is translated into a sequence of amino acids that form proteins.
