Ribosome, artwork F006 / 9206
Computer artwork of a ribosome. Ribosomes are protein particles that are found in cell cytoplasm. Each ribosome has a large and a small subunit. Messenger ribonucleic acid passes between the two subunits and provides the instructions for the assembly of a protein (polypeptide) chain from amino acids. The mRNA originates in the cells nucleus, and is a copy of the information coded in DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). The process of protein synthesis from mRNA in ribosomes is known as translation. Different sequences of mRNA produce different proteins

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated artwork of a ribosome, the essential protein particles found in cell cytoplasm. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this image beautifully captures the complexity of cellular biology. The ribosome consists of two subunits, one large and one small. Acting as a molecular machine, it plays a crucial role in protein synthesis by translating messenger RNA (mRNA) into amino acid chains. The mRNA carries instructions from the cell's nucleus, where DNA is stored, to guide the assembly of proteins. In this mesmerizing illustration, we witness the fascinating process of translation taking place within the ribosome. As different sequences of mRNA pass between the subunits, they produce diverse proteins that are vital for various biological functions. This artwork not only represents scientific research but also symbolizes advancements in medicine and healthcare. By understanding how ribosomes function at a molecular level, scientists can gain insights into diseases caused by faulty protein production and develop potential therapeutic interventions. With its white background and cutout design, this print stands out as an eye-catching piece suitable for any laboratory or medical setting. It serves as a reminder of our ongoing exploration into life's building blocks and our continuous efforts to unravel nature's mysteries at microscopic levels.
