The video tutorial explains the Central Dogma of Molecular Biology, detailing the flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to proteins. It covers the three main steps: replication, transcription, and translation, with a focus on translation. The process of RNA splicing and preparation for translation is discussed, including the addition of a cap and polyadenylation. The tutorial describes how mRNA is translated into proteins in ribosomes, highlighting the roles of codons, anticodons, and tRNA. The translation mechanism is explained, including the formation of peptide bonds and the recycling of tRNA.
