Transcribed mRNAs are made in more copies to produce enough proteins, are more error-prone due to the less stringent proofreading during transcription compared to DNA replication, and last a shorter time because mRNA molecules are degraded after a certain period or after they have been used in protein synthesis, allowing cells to regulate protein levels dynamically.
