Proteins are just chains of amino acids that fold and bend based on how the AAs interact with one another. The nMRNA just directs the order of the amino acid chain then, for the most part, chemistry and physics take over for the folding.
Basically mRNA determined the order of the AAs in a chain
Then the AAs play off one another to create secondary structures (typically a spiral or a sheet) along the chain
Those secondary structures fold into each other to create the tertiary structure.
Sometimes, those tertiary structures will combine with others to produce a quaternary structure.
All the mRNA directly influences is the primary structure, ie the order of amino acids in the chain.
Well a protein being “made” does include folding.
