    GlossaryProtein Synthesis

    cells build proteins from amino acids using DNA instructions

    Protein synthesis is the process by which cells build proteins, which are essential for various functions in the body. It involves two main steps: transcription, where the DNA code is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA), and translation, where the mRNA is read by ribosomes to assemble amino acids into a specific protein. This process is crucial for cell growth, repair, and overall function.
