The process of producing a protein product from a messenger RNA (mRNA) is called transcription. This occurs in the cytoplasm of a cell, and typically at the rough ER.
Messenger RNA, mRNA. The DNA information is encoded into mRNA in the nucleus by translation and this message leaves the nucleus to dock with a ribosomal subunit to synthesize proteins.

Ribosomes translate messenger RNA into proteins.
nucleus
mRNA molecules carries information from a gene to the ribosome.
Following the "life central dogma" of Biology, the genes codifies to a messenger molecule that carries the "information" that is going to be "translated" into proteins. In biochemical words: The genes, in the doble-helix molecule of DNA, are transcribed into a single-strand molecule of messenger RNA, or mRNA (the transcription process) that is translated into a sequence of amino acids to form a polypeptide chain in the process called protein synthesis or translation.

The DNA molecule is the cell's instructions. It is the information contained in this molecule that determines what proteins the cell makes, and we are thinking that a certain part of the molecule called telomeres may even tell the cell how long to live.
