WHAT IS IEC 60601-1. IEC 60601 is a series of technical standards. for the safety and effectiveness of medical. electrical equipment. The primary standard governing medical device. design is IEC 60601-1 (medical electrical equipment. - Part 1: general requirements for basic safety and. essential performance).
Figure 1: A gene is expressed through the processes of transcription and translation. 1  During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase (green) uses DNA as a template to produce a pre-mRNA transcript (pink).
Translation (biology) In molecular biology and genetics, translation is the process in which cellular ribosomes create proteins. In translation, messenger RNA (mRNA)âproduced by transcription from DNAâis decoded by a ribosome to produce a specific amino acid chain, or polypeptide. The polypeptide later folds into an active protein and performs its functions in the cell.
