Transcription:
The process to make RNA from DNA. This process occurs in the nucleus of the cell. In simple terms: RNA polymerase binds to the DNA and transcribes a pre-mRNA strand, which contians coding regions (exons) and non-coding regions (introns). The pre-mRNA is made mature by removing the intron regions (non-coding regions) and adding a 5'Guanosine cap and a 3' poly A tail (A=Adenosine). This is called a mature mRNA. All of this occurs in the nucleus.
Translation:
This process translates mRNA to proteins. mature mRNA leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome (the ribosome (aka rRNA) binds to the region before the start codon. In bacteria, it is called
the shine-delgarno sequence). Then tRNA comes into the p-site in the ribosome and you have base pairing between the mRNA and
tRNA. Once this interaction occurs, it causes a conformational change within the tRNA and that releases the amino acid. The amino acids string together to make a protein.
