Protein Synthesis

DNA contains the code lhat provides instructions for the cell to make a specific protein, Nucleus DNA strand 9 2 Through a process known as transcription. messenger RNA (mFlNA) makes a copy ol this code to take outside the nucleus. eThe mFiNA attaches to the ribosome. which is the sile where new proteins are synthesized. Cytoplasm 0 Meanwhile, transfer RNA (tRNA) collects amino acids I, 0 that are located in other parts . Amino acid of the cell and brings them to J 0 pool the ribosome ‘ ‘ K 0 mFlNA - .lV Flibosome eThrough a series ol events tFiNA (called translation). mRNA directs tFlNA to put the amino acids in a particular sequencer according to the original DNA Protein strand coder Once the tRNA is done putting the amino acids in the correct order, the process is complete and a new polypeptide is lormed and ‘ released into the cytoplasm ol the cell.
