DNA Learning Center
A short animation from the DNA Learning Center showing how mRNA carries a gene's message to the ribosome, where tRNA and codons are used to assemble amino acids into a protein.
Frequently linked as a mind-blowing visualization of how RNA is translated into protein, especially in threads on mRNA vaccines and cell biology.
