Question
How can a eukaryotic cell control the translation of $\mathrm{mRNA}$ transcripts after they have been transported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm?
Step 1

Explain briefly what happens to eukaryotic mRNA before it can be translated to protein.
Explain how an mRNA molecule can remain attached to the ER membrane while individual ribosomes translating it are released and rejoin the cytosolic pool of ribosomes after each round of translation.
