Biophysical Chemistry
Gene expression is the process by which information from a gene is used to synthesize functional gene products, typically proteins, that perform specific functions in the cell. This process involves transcription, where DNA is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA), followed by translation, where mRNA is decoded to build proteins. The regulation of gene expression is crucial for cellular differentiation and adaptation to environmental changes.
