The creation of protein from nucleic acid involves two main processes: transcription and translation. During transcription, the DNA sequence of a gene is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) in the nucleus. The mRNA then exits the nucleus and enters the cytoplasm, where translation occurs; ribosomes read the mRNA sequence and synthesize a corresponding protein by linking together the appropriate amino acids. This process is essential for cellular function and expression of genetic information.
