What's the difference between transcription and translation?

Great question! Here are the key differences:

Transcription :

  • Occurs in the nucleus
  • DNA → mRNA
  • Uses RNA polymerase
  • Produces a complementary RNA copy of the DNA template

Translation :

  • Occurs in the ribosome (cytoplasm)
  • mRNA → Protein
  • Uses ribosomes and tRNA
  • Converts genetic code into amino acid sequences

Key Questions

What enzyme catalyzes mRNA synthesis?
What are the 3 stop codons?

Notes

RNA polymerase binds to promoter region and synthesizes mRNA from 5' to 3' direction

Post-transcriptional modifications: 5' cap, 3' poly-A tail, and splicing of introns

Key Insight: Stop codons UAA, UAG, UGA signal ribosome to release polypeptide

Summary

Transcription creates mRNA from DNA template; translation converts mRNA codons to amino acid sequences at ribosome

What are the three stop codons in mRNA translation?

1 / 10

UAA, UAG, and UGA

These are also called "nonsense codons" or "termination codons" because they don't code for any amino acid. Instead, they signal the ribosome to stop translation and release the completed polypeptide chain.
