A messenger protein, often referred to as a signaling protein, is a type of protein that transmits signals between cells or within cells to initiate various biological processes. These proteins play crucial roles in communication pathways, such as hormones and neurotransmitters, by binding to specific receptors and triggering cellular responses. They are essential for regulating functions like growth, metabolism, and immune responses. Examples include insulin, which regulates glucose levels, and cytokines, which modulate immune responses.
A single stranded RNA molecule that encodes the information to make a protein is called messenger RNA (mRNA). This molecule serves as a template for protein synthesis during translation in the ribosomes of a cell.
It is the messenger between DNA and the protein synthesis ribosomes
The messenger RNA or mRNA.
Transcription is the synthesis of messenger RNA from DNA in the nucleus.
Messenger RNA molecules are fed through the ribosomes during protein synthesis.
Translation
Messenger RNA is translated to form proteins .
Messenger RNA (mRNA) is attached to a ribosome during protein construction. The ribosome acts as the site where the mRNA is read and translated into a protein. As the ribosome moves along the mRNA, it synthesizes the corresponding protein based on the genetic information encoded in the mRNA molecule.

Protein kinase A is activated by the second messenger through a process called phosphorylation. When the second messenger binds to the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A, it causes a conformational change that releases the catalytic subunit. This released catalytic subunit is then able to phosphorylate target proteins, leading to various cellular responses.
Messenger RNA molecules are fed through the ribosomes during protein synthesis.
Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries the genetic information from the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm where it is translated into a protein.
