What must happen to DNA strands before transcription can begin?

DNA strands must unwind and the two strands must separate prior to transcription beginning. Once transcription is complete, the two strands join back together.


What are DNA strands separated by?

Assuming this is regarding DNA replication or transcription, the enzyme helicase separates the two strands.


When an enzyme that blinds to DNA and separates the DNA strands during transcription is RNA what?

What enzyme binds to DNA during transcription unzipping the strands of RNA?

DNA helicase is the enzyme that aids DNA in unzipping during transcription.


What are the two single strands of DNA?

The strand used as a template for mRNA during transcription is called the antisense strand. The DNA strand not used as a template is called the sense strand.Read more: What_are_the_two_DNA_strands

Transcription


What is the enzyme that binds and separates the DNA strands during transcription?

single-strand binding proteins


What is necessary for transcription?

DNA polymerase is the enzyme that "unzips" the complementary DNA strands allowing mRNA to transcribe, or copy, a section of DNA.

Why does translation depend on transcription?

translation is the process in which the mRNA is decoded by the ribosome to synthesise protein. however mRNA have to be replicated from one of the strands of the DNA as they do not exist in the cell on their own. the process of formation of the mRNA from one of the DNA strands is called transcription.
