Stages of Translation

Translation involves “decoding” a messenger RNA (mRNA) and using its information to build a polypeptide, or chain of amino acids, in the process of DNA replication.

First, read that explains the stages of translation in-depth, and return here afterward.

Protein Targeting

Protein targeting involves how molecular labels are used to direct proteins to different parts of the cell (and to the cell exterior).

Read to learn more about protein targeting and its role in the cell's lifecycle, and return here afterward.
