The steps it takes to make a fully functional protein starting with RNA in the nucleus made from DNA.
What is the RNA moves to the rough ER where the ribosomes turn the RNA message into proteins, the proteins get put into transport vesicles and are transported to the Golgi Apparatus. In the Golgi the proteins are altered to their final states and then sent off to the appropriate place in a transport vesicle.
