The video explains protein synthesis, focusing on transcription and translation. Transcription involves copying a DNA gene into mRNA, which then exits the nucleus to be translated into a protein by ribosomes. The mRNA's sequence of bases determines the order of amino acids in the protein, facilitated by tRNA molecules. The video details the structural differences between DNA and mRNA and the roles of RNA polymerase and ribosomes in protein synthesis.
