Explain the role of DNA in protein synthesis.

Explanation

The process of protein synthesis takes place in multiple steps. The first step of the process is called transcription.
Transcription is the process of generating a copy of RNA which carries the informa tion to the site of protein synthesis, that is, ribosomes.
Since this RNA transfers the information from DNA to the ribosomes, it is called mes senger RNA (mRNA).
Proteins are made up of amino acids. Different amino acids can be linked together by means of chemical bonds to form different kinds of proteins.
The proteins vary from one another depending on the sequence of amino acids. The sequence of amino acids is decided by the information brought by mRNA in the form of sequence of nucleotides.
The sequence of nucleotides in mRNA is complementary to the sequence of nucleo tides in the DNA strand.
