In the previous tutorial you learned about how DNA is replicated. In this tutorial you will learn how DNA codes for the production of proteins.

The Learning Objectives for this topic are that by the end of the tutorial you will be able to:

Describe the process of transcription, including the molecules and enzymes that are needed
Use the genetic code table and explain the properties of the genetic code
Describe the process of translation, including the molecules that are needed
Explain how mutations in the DNA can affect the polypeptide produced
