  1. Sep 8, 2023 · Biology definition: Translation is the process of translating (converting) the transcript (genetic information) from the mRNA into a specific sequence of amino acids in the growing chain of a polypeptide. The three general steps of translation are initiation, translation elongation, and translation termination.

  2. Apr 7, 2019 · Translation Definition. Translation refers to the process of creating proteins from an mRNA template. The sequence of nucleotides on the RNA is translated into the amino acid sequence of proteins and this reaction is carried out by ribosomes.

  4. Aug 6, 2024 · Translation, the synthesis of protein from RNA. Translation takes place on ribosomes, where messenger RNA molecules are read and translated into amino acid chains. These chains are then folded in various ways to form proteins. Translation follows transcription, in which DNA is decoded into RNA.

  5. Aug 31, 2020 · Transcription and translation are the two processes that convert a sequence of nucleotides from DNA into a sequence of amino acids to build the desired protein. These two processes are essential for life. They are found in all organisms – eukaryotic and prokaryotic.

  6. Feb 17, 2023 · The first step, called transcription, involves rewriting the information in DNA to mRNA. In contrast, the second step is called translation. Thus the main purpose of translation is to convert the information in mRNA into a particular sequence of amino acids (a polypeptide chain), forming a protein.
