|
protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells
|
First, information is transferred from DNA to messenger RNA. The RNA leaves the nucleus and carries the information it received from DNA to the ribosomes. The message in the RNA sequence of nucleotides is translated into a sequence of amino acids, which are linked to form a polypeptide.
