This led me to delve into the intricacies of gene transcription, the process where DNA is converted into RNA. I also explored the role that your microbiome, or the communities of microorganisms in our bodies, play in this process. This is particularly relevant because gene expression through transcription and translation shapes the proteins our bodies produce. These proteins, in turn, regulate various bodily functions.
