Description: WEBAug 31, 2020 · Transcription and translation are the two processes that convert a sequence of nucleotides from DNA into a sequence of amino acids to build the desired protein. These two processes are essential for life. They are found in all organisms – eukaryotic and prokaryotic.

Description: WEBTranscription and translation are the means by which cells read out, or express, the genetic instructions in their genes. Because many identical RNA copies can be made from the same gene, and each RNA molecule can direct the synthesis of many identical protein molecules, cells can synthesize a large amount of protein rapidly when necessary.

Description: WEBIf the gene that's transcribed encodes a protein (which many genes do), the RNA molecule will be read to make a protein in a process called translation. Are there steps between transcription and translation? RNA polymerases are enzymes that transcribe DNA into RNA. Using a DNA template, RNA polymerase builds a new RNA molecule through …

Link: https://www.khanacademy.org/science/ap-biology/gene-expression-and-regulation/transcription-and-rna-processing/a/overview-of-transcription
Description: WEBThe goal of transcription is to make a RNA copy of a gene's DNA sequence. For a protein-coding gene, the RNA copy, or transcript, carries the information needed to build a polypeptide (protein or protein subunit). Eukaryotic transcripts need to go through some processing steps before translation into proteins.

Description: WEBStep 1: transcription! Here, the DNA sequence of a gene is "rewritten" in the form of RNA. In eukaryotes like you and me, the RNA is processed (and often has a few bits snipped out of it) to make the final product, called a messenger RNA or mRNA. Step 2: translation!

10. The intricate relationship between transcription and translation
Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8166118/
Description: WEBMay 5, 2021 · Transcription and translation are commonly viewed as separate. In eukaryotes, their respective confinement to the nucleus and cytoplasm enforces this. Yet, prokaryotes have no such barrier, and newly synthesized mRNAs are translated while they are still being transcribed.
