Difference between Start codon and Translation (biology)

Start codon vs. Translation (biology)

The start codon is the first codon of a messenger RNA (mRNA) transcript translated by a ribosome. In molecular biology and genetics, translation is the process in which ribosomes in the cytoplasm or ER synthesize proteins after the process of transcription of DNA to RNA in the cell's nucleus.

Similarities between Start codon and Translation (biology)

Start codon and Translation (biology) have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Eukaryote, Genetic code, Leucine, Messenger RNA, Methionine, Prokaryote, Ribosome, Transfer RNA.

Eukaryote

Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus enclosed within membranes, unlike Prokaryotes (Bacteria and other Archaea).

Genetic code

The genetic code is the set of rules used by living cells to translate information encoded within genetic material (DNA or mRNA sequences) into proteins.

Leucine

Leucine (symbol Leu or L) is an essential amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.

Messenger RNA

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a large family of RNA molecules that convey genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where they specify the amino acid sequence of the protein products of gene expression.

Methionine

Methionine (symbol Met or M) is an essential amino acid in humans.

Prokaryote

A prokaryote is a unicellular organism that lacks a membrane-bound nucleus, mitochondria, or any other membrane-bound organelle.

Ribosome

The ribosome is a complex molecular machine, found within all living cells, that serves as the site of biological protein synthesis (translation).

Transfer RNA

A transfer RNA (abbreviated tRNA and formerly referred to as sRNA, for soluble RNA) is an adaptor molecule composed of RNA, typically 76 to 90 nucleotides in length, that serves as the physical link between the mRNA and the amino acid sequence of proteins.

Start codon and Translation (biology) Comparison

Start codon has 17 relations, while Translation (biology) has 89. As they have in common 8, the Jaccard index is 7.55% = 8 / (17 + 89).
