Central Dogma Definitions

  • Replication: The process of creating an exact copy of DNA, ensuring genetic material is duplicated accurately.
  • Transcription: The process of creating a complementary RNA copy from a specific DNA segment, which carries genetic information.
  • Translation: The process where ribosomes use mRNA as a template to build a sequence of amino acids, resulting in protein synthesis.
