  5. VI. Protein Synthesis A. Overview A T G C T G A C T A C T G T A C G A CT G A T G A C The ribosome reads the m-RNA. Based on the sequence of nitrogenous bases in the m-RNA, a specific sequence of amino acids (carried to the ribosome by t-RNA’s) is linked together to form a protein. This is TRANSLATION.

There may be multiple introns of varying length in a gene. Genes may be several thousand base-pairs long. This is a simplified example!

  9. VI. Protein Synthesis A. Overview B. The Process of Protein Synthesis 1. Transcription b. The cell 'reads' the correct strand based on the location of the promoter, the anti-parallel nature of the double helix, and the chemical limitations of the 'reading' enzyme, RNA Polymerase.

They bind in particular orientation.
