Protein synthesis
DNA --> RNA --> Proteins -----------------------------------------That simple.
It's DNA - RNA - protein. DNA encoding a gene is transcribed to mRNA or messenger RNA by RNA polymerase. The RNA is then translated into a protein sequences at the ribosome. tRNA's or transfer RNA's act like a dictionary for the translation. They can recognize a code of three nucleotides (a codon) in the RNA and bring the corresponding amino acid to the right place at the ribosome, where it is ligated to the rest of the protein. A protein is a chain of amino acids. see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_dogma
The exon codes for the opening sequence of DNA for protein synthesis. It is a sequence of nucleotides that code for the RNA to begin transcription of the DNA to RNA protein.
DNA -> RNA -> protein. That simple!

Translation is to protein as transcription is to RNA. Transcription is the process by which RNA is synthesized from DNA, while translation is the process by which proteins are synthesized from RNA.
The central dogma of biology states that the flow of genetic information in a cell is from DNA to RNA to protein. This means that genetic information is transcribed from DNA to RNA and then translated from RNA to protein, which carries out various functions in the cell.

. What are RNA and DNA?
Viruses are pathogens made from RNA or DNA and are encapsulated in a protein shell.
