How does the genetic code control the production of proteins?

Answer 1

DNA carries the template used to create mRNA, which is then translated by ribosomes (protein synthesis). Therefore the code carried by DNA determines the sequence of amino acids which make up proteins.

Answer 2

If you ask the control of the synthesis of proteins, the answer is following:

protein synthesis is controlled again by proteins (which are, of course, coded by the DNA); these regulatory proteins either regulate proteosynthesis in cytoplasm by influencing ribosomes and/or mRNA (the protein synthesis itself) or in the nucleus by stimulating or inhibiting expression of particular genes (which code proteins again, as every gene does).

Answer 3

The genetic code is a set of instructions encoded in DNA that determines the sequence of amino acids in a protein. Messenger RNA (mRNA) is transcribed from DNA, then translated into a specific sequence of amino acids by ribosomes. Transfer RNA (tRNA) brings the correct amino acids to the ribosome based on the mRNA sequence, ultimately resulting in the production of a specific protein.

Answer 4

DNA controls the production of proteins in cells because it contains genetic information. All functioning organisms are the result of the genetic information supplied by DNA.
