Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the function of mRNA in protein synthesis? (2021)
  • Step 1: DNA contains the genetic information needed to make proteins.
  • Step 2: When a protein is needed, a copy of the relevant DNA is made into mRNA.
  • Step 3: mRNA leaves the nucleus of the cell and travels to the ribosome.
  • Step 4: At the ribosome, the mRNA is read in sets of three bases called codons.
  • Step 5: Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid, which are the building blocks of proteins.
  • Step 6: The ribosome assembles the amino acids in the order specified by the mRNA to form a protein.
