Decoding the Genetic Code: From DNA to Protein Synthesis
The genetic code is the foundation of life, dictating how DNA sequences are transformed into functional proteins through transcription and translation. This diagram illustrates the precise mechanism by which a DNA template strand is transcribed into RNA and subsequently translated into a sequence of amino acids to form a protein. Understanding this process is crucial for unraveling the complexities of molecular biology and the synthesis of proteins that drive cellular functions.
