Biology - Protein Synthesis

1. TRANSCRIPTION - RNA COPY OF GENE IS MADE

- Takes place in the nucleus

- With the help of helicase enzyme, hydrogen bonds between two DNA strands break, allowing the two strands to partly separate

- One of the strands is used as a template, (template strand) to make a mRNA molecule. The template strand is called the antisense strand.

- The mRNA is built from free RNA nucleotides which line up against the DNA template strand. 

- Every triplet code…
