The Central Dogma involves three major players, namely DNA, RNA, and proteins.
It also involves three processes, namely DNA replication, transcription, and translation through protein synthesis.
It forms the basis of storage, transmission, and expression of hereditary information.

It is the process by which genetic information from DNA is transferred into RNA. DNA sequence is enzymatically copied by messenger messenger RNA (mRNA) RNA (mRNA) to produce a complementary nucleotide transfer transfer RNA (tRNA) RNA (tRNA) strand.
One significant difference between RNA and DNA sequence is the presence of UracilUracil in RNA instead of the Thymine of DNA.

It is the process of translating RNA message (from mRNA) into proteins with the help of transfer RNA (tRNA)transfer RNA (tRNA)..
This uses an mRNA sequence as a template to guide the synthesis of a chain of amino acidsamino acids that forms proteins.
Translation occurs in the cytoplasm where the ribosomes are located.

1. InitiationInitiation - A ribosome attaches to the mRNA and starts to code at the FMet codon (START codon: AUG, GUG or UUG).
2. ElongationElongation - tRNA brings the corresponding amino acid to each codon as the ribosome moves down the mRNA strand.
3. TerminationTermination - Reading of the final mRNA codon (STOP codon: UAA, UAG, UGA), which ends the synthesis of the peptide chain and releases it.
![Page 24: Central dogma of molecular genetics valerio](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102922/547caa64b4af9f37048b46c6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Specifically, the code defines a mapping between tri-nucleotide sequences called codonscodons and amino acids.
Every triplet of nucleotides in a nucleic acid sequence specifies a single amino acid.

Protein synthesis is the process by which cells build proteins.
ProteinsProteins are large organic compounds made of amino acids arranged in a linear chain and joined together by peptide bonds.

A mutationmutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence of a gene. Mutations in a gene's DNA sequence can alter the amino acid sequence of the protein encoded by the gene.
Most mutations are neutral or harmless. These are called silent mutations. However, when mutations affect the composition of a gene they can cause illness or even death.

Mutations are usually due to mistakes that are made when cells copy their DNA before dividing and that are not detected by the cell’s repair mechanisms.
Other mutations may be caused by outside mutagenic agents such as ultraviolet rays and other forms of radiation, chemicals, toxins, and drugs.

Only mutations that happen in germ cells (egg or sperm cells) are passed from parent to offspring.
In this case, the mutation will be in every cell of the offspring.
