essentially it's just making proteins.
occurs in the ribosomes of cells.
You're basically using Amino Acids to make chains of Amino Acids and then joining chains to make proteins eg enzymes.
The protein you make depends on the instructions from mRNA (basically DNA).

DNA from Nucleus is transferred via mature messenger RNA (mRNA) via transcription. Then the DNA is translated into protein sequences, for coding with the ribosomes on the cytoplasm.

mRNA undergoes splicing, to remove intron nucleotides.

We make use of an intermediary, to protect DNA from the damaging effects of the chemicals that exist in the cytoplasm.

thanks :wink:
Simply put, the proteins you eat are broken down into amino acids, which are then used as a source for proteins to be used for various purposes in the body.
