What is Transcription and Translation Overview about?

Transcription and translation are the two processes by which genetic information stored in DNA is used to synthesize proteins. Transcription involves RNA polymerase synthesizing RNA from DNA. Translation uses mRNA to direct protein synthesis on ribosomes using tRNA and amino acids. It proceeds in three stages - initiation, elongation, and termination. The genetic code specifies the correspondence between nucleotide triplets in mRNA and the 20 standard amino acids used to build proteins.
