Translation


Translation is the process of converting the sequence of nucleotide residues in mRNA into the sequence of amino acid residues in a polypeptide. Since protein is synthesized as a consequence of translation, the process is also called protein synthesis.

Translation is the second process of protein biosynthesis (part of the overall process of gene expression). In translation, Messenger RNA (mRNA) is decoded to produce a specific polypeptide according to the rules specified by the genetic code.

Translation of at least one mRNA in humans is repressed by a protein — aminoacyl tRNA synthetase.

Translation - Details
A mature mRNA transcript, a ribosome, several tRNA molecules and amino acids are shown. There is a specific tRNA for each of the 20 different amino acids.
Below: A ribosome attaches to the mRNA transcript.

The transcription of a DNA molecule into mRNA molecules, and the subsequent translation of the mRNA molecules into polypeptides, within a laboratory mixture which contains ribosomes, enzymes, and all of the necessary components.

Translation
The process in which the genetic code carried by mRNA directs the synthesis of proteins from amino acids. The mRNA base sequence is translated into sequence of amino acids in a peptide or protein. Occurs on ribosomes. (Cf. transcription).

Translation invariance, rotation invariance, time reversal symmetry, and reflection symmetry of the laws of physics. Indeed, special relativity generalizes and unifies these symmetries via the principle of Lorentz invariance.

translation The synthesis of protein on a template of messenger RNA; consists of three steps: initiation, elongation, and termination. Making of a polypeptide sequence by translating the genetic code of an mRNA molecule associated with a ribosome.

Translation
The assembly of amino acids into polypeptides using the genetic information encoded in the molecules of mRNA.

translation
[L. trans, across + latus, that which is carried]
The synthesis of a polypeptide using the genetic information encoded in an mRNA molecule. There is a change of "language" from nucleotides to amino acids.

TRANSLATION - The process whereby mRNA directs the synthesis of a protein molecule; carried out by the ribosome in association with a host of translation initiation, elongation and termination factors.

Translation. The process of converting the genetic infor- mation of an mRNA on ribosomes into a polypeptide. Transfer RNA molecules carry the appropriate amino acids to the ribosome, where they are joined by peptide bonds.

Translation: The process of decoding a strand of mRNA, thereby producing a protein based on the code.

Translation: The process of converting the genetic code into polypeptides, catalyzed by the ribosome and a host of soluble factors. mRNA codons are recognized by tRNA anti-codons.

Degeneracy Backtranslation of amino acid sequences usually leads to a collection of possible base sequences which can code for the amino acid sequence, due to the degeneracy of the genetic code.

A complementary RNA sequence that binds to a naturally occurring (sense) mRNA molecule, thus blocking its translation. (See RNA.) Asexual reproduction. Nonsexual means of reproduction which can include grafting and budding. Autosome.

5' - end -- the end of a polynucleotide with a free (or phosphorylated or capped) 5' - hydroxyl group; transcription/translation begins at this end.

While determining the polypeptide sequence resulting from gene translation is straightforward, determining the actual three-dimensional (3D) structure requires some sophisticated experimental techniques.

Effects of additions and deletions: If the length of the new or deleted segment is not a multiple of three the translation will be garbled after the point at which the insertion/deletion occurred because the frame reading is now misaligned.
