Translation efficiency refers to the ability of a cellular machinery to accurately and swiftly synthesize proteins from mRNA. It is influenced by factors such as codon usage biases, tRNA availability, and the speed of ribosomal movement along the mRNA strand.

Translation efficiency

Cellular machinery refers to the complex network of macromolecules and organelles within a cell that work together to perform the essential functions of life, such as energy production, protein synthesis, and cell division. This intricate system is driven by highly coordinated biochemical processes and is fundamental to maintaining cellular homeostasis and responding to environmental changes.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a type of RNA that carries genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where proteins are synthesized. It plays a crucial role in the process of gene expression, acting as a template for translating genetic code into functional proteins.
