Summary Introduction

To determine: The list of similarities and difference in the events of initiation, elongation, and termination stages of translation.

Introduction: The gene expression is a highly complex but coordinated process. The information present in the DNA is transferred to RNA molecule by the process called transcription in which dsDNA provides a template for the synthesis of the RNA molecule. The translation, on the other hand, is the passing of the information transferred from mRNA to make a corresponding peptide chain according to the information coded in the mRNA molecule.
