The video explains the transcription process, where DNA is converted into RNA, which is then processed to become messenger RNA (mRNA). It covers the initiation of transcription by transcription factors, the role of RNA polymerase in elongation, and the processing steps like capping and polyadenylation that stabilize RNA. The video also details the splicing process, where introns are removed by the spliceosome to produce functional mRNA ready for protein synthesis.
