From Dna To Protein - 3d Access

: Once the chain is complete (at a "stop" codon), it detaches and folds into a complex 3D structure to become a functional protein. From DNA to protein - 3D

The animation breaks down the into two primary stages: 1. Transcription (Inside the Nucleus)

: This enzyme attaches to a specific gene and unwinds the DNA double helix. From DNA to protein - 3D

: Before leaving the nucleus, the mRNA is edited—removing and adding segments—to prepare it for translation. 2. Translation (In the Cytoplasm)

: The ribosome links these amino acids into a growing polypeptide chain. : Once the chain is complete (at a

: The mature mRNA exits the nucleus through a pore and enters the cytoplasm, where a ribosome binds to it.

: The ribosome reads the mRNA in triplets called codons . : Before leaving the nucleus, the mRNA is
