It all comes down to translation, where nucleotides are translated into a chain of amino acids. In this episode of Crash Course Biology, we’ll cover codon-reading ribosomes, tRNA delivery trucks, and scientists who are using what they know about translation to save lives.Introduction: Making Proteins 00:00DNA & mRNA 1:13How Translation Works 2:16Peptides & Polypeptides 6:43Why Proteins Matter 7:07Dr. Katalin Karikó 9:26Review & Credits 11:37This series was produced in collaboration with HHMI BioInteractive, committed to empowering educators and inspiring students with engaging, accessible, and quality classroom resources.
