- 46. Summary Protein Synthesis is fairly simple. The first step is RNA polymerase unwinds a DNA strand and synthesizes a mRNA strand. This is because the DNA strand is too big to fit through the nuclear pores and the DNA must stay in the nucleus. Next, the mRNA strand leaves the nucleus through the nuclear pores into the cytoplasm and comes in contact with a ribosome. The ribosome reads the mRNA strand and coverts it into an amino acid sequence. Last, once the amino acids are connected by peptide bonds, the amino acids forms into a three dimensional figure (tertiary structure). The protein does not have a function until it is in a three dimensional figure.
