Protein synthesis begins with transcription, where DNA is converted into messenger RNA (mRNA) in the nucleus. The mRNA then exits the nucleus and enters the cytoplasm, where it is translated by ribosomes into a polypeptide chain, using transfer RNA (tRNA) to bring in the appropriate amino acids. Finally, the polypeptide chain undergoes folding and modifications to become a functional protein.
