The process is called translation. This process involves a large enzyme called the ribosome and an adapter molecule between the two languages of mRNA sequence and peptide sequence called transfer RNA (tRNA).
From a nucleic acid code to an amino acid code
Transamination
Messenger RNA or mRNA comes from the gene. Gene is present in the chromosome of the cell. This messenger RNA comes with the sequence of amino acids codes. Also called as codons. The transfer RNA or tRNA brings in the amino acids. The messenger RNA directs the the type of amino acid, that has to be fixed in. The sequence of the amino acids is meticulously fallowed. If single amino acid is in short supply, then the entire chain is broken down. This is how you get the protein with specific sequence of the amino acids. The number of permutations and combinations of say 100 amino acids, is beyond the human brain to comprehend.
Virtually all of the protein or amino acid-based hormones exert their effects through intracellular second messengers KT
Aside from starting and stopping the translation process each codon triplet is the code for one amino acid. As there are 64 codons the amino acid code is redundant. So, ACU, could be the code for one amino acid in the mRNA coding sequence. Google codon table.
First we convert the nucleic acid into a messenger RNA, mRNA, by the process of transcription. Then, in the ribosome, we convert this mRNA unto a polypeptide ( the amino acid sequence ) by the process of translation.

No amino acid is coded for. It is a stop codon that instructs to stop the process of translation.
