Chapter 14, Problem 8TYU
Summary Introduction
To discuss:
The coupling of the transcription and translation in eukaryotic cells.
Introduction:
The central dogma states that flow of genetic material occurs in two steps, transcription and translation. The RNA (ribonucleic acid) is synthesized from DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and the process is called transcription. The translation is the process, in which RNA synthesize proteins.
