Before revision: Translation is a fundamental cellular process in gene expression. During translation, complex micro-molecules called ribosomes sequentially scan the genetic information encoded in the mRNA molecule and transform it into a chain of amino-acids that is further processed to yield a functional protein. The speed of translation depends on the initiation, elongation, and termination rates of ribosomes along the mRNA.
