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 - 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.

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 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 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.

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.

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.
