... The expression of a gene entails the transcription of the DNA sequence into a messenger RNA (mRNA) version and the translation of that mRNA into a protein sequence. The expression of most genes is regulated at the transcriptional level— cells do not waste energy making mRNAs and proteins they do not ...
