How does the cell convert DNA into working proteins? The process of translation can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins, involving mRNA in transcription as well as tRNA. But ...

Transcription and translation are processes a cell uses to make all proteins the body needs to function from information stored in the sequence of bases in DNA. The four bases (C, A, T/U, and G in the ...

This illustration shows proteins and DNA in the process of DNA repair. RecA proteins (gold) cradle a single-stranded DNA (brown) that searches for homology with a DNA template (purple). The template ...
