Here's how it works:
* DNA contains the genetic code for an organism.
* Transcription is the process where an enzyme called RNA polymerase reads the DNA sequence and creates a complementary copy in the form of mRNA.
* This mRNA molecule then leaves the nucleus and travels to the ribosomes, where translation occurs.
* During translation, the mRNA sequence is read to assemble amino acids into a protein.
So, while mRNA is involved in the synthesis of proteins, it's not the "transcriber" – that role belongs to DNA.
