What is the name of the process of building up large proteins in a cell?

Protein synthesis requires two steps: transcription and translationMessenger RNA (mRNA) a copy of a portion of the DNA. It carries genetic information from the gene (DNA) out of the nucleus, into the cytoplasm of the cell where it is translated to produce protein. Proteins are created by ribosomes translating mRNA into polypeptide chains. These polypeptide chains undergo PTM (Posttranslational modification) to give the mature protein.
