Gene Control and Enzyme Regulation Quiz

Gene Expression and Protein Synthesis

• The gene is responsible for controlling the production of mRNA needed to make an enzyme.

Transcription

• DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) during the gene-to-protein process.
• RNA polymerase is the molecule responsible for making mRNA during the transcription process.

Translation

• The translation process, converting mRNA into proteins, occurs in the ribosomes.

Central Dogma

• The central dogma of molecular biology describes the flow of genetic information in a cell, outlining the process of genetic information transfer from DNA to proteins.
