Beginning within the nucleus, the first step leading to the synthesis of a polypeptide is _____. beginning within the nucleus, t
he first step leading to the synthesis of a polypeptide is _____. linking of nucleotides to form a polypeptide removal of introns from rna and the stitching together of exons transferring of information from dna to messenger rna translation of a dna nucleotide sequence into a sequence of amino acids translation of an rna nucleotide sequence into a sequence of amino acids
Gene expression involves formation of various proteins from specific genes. The expression starts with the process of transcription where DNA is transcribed into a mRNA by enzyme RNA polymerase. Then mRNA diffuses out of the nucleus and the process of translation takes place in the ribosomes generating a polypeptide then a protein is formed. Therefore, the correct answer is transferring of information from DNA to messenger RNA (transcription).
