What is attenuation?

Expert Solution
Step 1

DNA is the genetic material in most living organisms. It is the information hub of the cell that contains instructions for the synthesis of proteins. The central dogma of molecular biology is that DNA undergoes replication to create copies of itself, undergoes transcription to create expressible mRNA and this mRNA undergoes translation so that protein can be formed from the information carried in mRNA.
