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
Translation is the process of translating the sequence of a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule to a sequence of amino acids during protein synthesis.
Translation
Translation is the process where ribosomes synthesize proteins using the mature mRNA transcript produced during transcription.

Glycosylation is one of the most common post-translational protein modifications.
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
Main article: Translation
During translation, the message of mRNA is decoded to make proteins. Initiation and elongation occur when the ribosome recognizes the starting codon on the mRNA strand and binds to it.
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 is the process of converting the mRNA codon sequences into an amino acid sequence. The initiator codon (AUG) codes for the amino acid N-formylmethionine (f-Met). No transcription occurs without the AUG codon.
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 decoding a strand of mRNA, thereby producing a protein based on the code.

Genetics is the study of heredity or inheritance. Genetics helps to explain how traits are passed from parents to their young. Understanding certain genetic concepts can be difficult for beginners.
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.
