Schematic representation of sequence information transfer between DNA, RNAs, and proteins (adapted from Cricksideas on protein synthesis, 1956). DNA can be replicated or transcribed into RNA. Translation generates proteins from mRNA templates. Solid arrows indicate the protein biogenesis route and its directionality. Dashed arrows point to DNA replication, RNA reverse transcription, and RNA self-replication.
