Shows how an understanding of protein synthesis in cells led to the cracking of the genetic code. Explains how DNA works through RNA to synthesize protein. Examines the part played by each of the three kinds of RNA in transcribing and translating the genetic code into protein. Also illustrates how nature insures against transmitting the genetic code in error.
