- Transcription: This is the first step in protein synthesis where the information encoded in a gene is transcribed from DNA to messenger RNA (mRNA) by RNA polymerase. This process occurs in the cell nucleus.

- Translation: This is the second step where the mRNA is translated into a protein by ribosomes in the cytoplasm. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules bring amino acids to the ribosome and the genetic code on the mRNA is read, which determines the sequence of amino acids in the protein.

- Protein folding: Once the protein is synthesized, it undergoes folding to adopt its functional three-dimensional structure. Chaperone proteins assist in the folding process, ensuring that the protein attains its correct conformation. Proper folding is crucial for the protein to perform its specific biological functions.
