During protein synthesis, is DNA replication needed to start the transcription process? I always see these two processes together but I don't see how DNA replication is needed here. Thank you.

in protein sysnthesis, DNA is needed but not the replication of it. The DNA is used as a template for the mRNA (which will leave the nucleus and code for the protines). DNA replication is needed to conserve the genes but it isn't necessarily needed in protien synthesis

if this didn't make sense then i can elaborate on it :)
