The video tutorial explains the process of going from DNA to protein, starting with transcription in the nucleus and translation at the ribosome. It details the structure of the nucleus, including the double bilipid membrane and nuclear pores, which allow mRNA to exit. The video distinguishes between cytosol and cytoplasm and describes the role of the endoplasmic reticulum in protein synthesis. It concludes with the formation of vesicles and the function of the Golgi apparatus in protein maturation and transport.
