A ribosome is a small cellular structure found in all living cells that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis. It reads messenger RNA (mRNA) sequences and assembles amino acids into proteins based on that genetic information. Ribosomes can be found floating freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, forming rough ER. They are essential for translating genetic code into functional proteins, which are vital for various cellular processes.
