What enzyme adds nucleotides of RNA to make the mRna?

RNA Polymerase is the enzyme responsible for adding RNA nucleotides to make mRNA.


Why is RNA polymerase a good name for that enzyme?

It synthesizes RNA "polymers", by adding RNA nucleotides one at a time to form the mRNA molecule.


What enzyme assembles the complimentary nucleotide bases during replication?

THat would be the enzyme DNA Polymerase III which attaches free floating nucleotides to the parent strand. But remember, they can only be attached to a free 3' position!


How is dna made into mRNA?

DNA is not made into mRNA, it is transcribed by mRNA. The DNA molecule is split into two strands by the enzyme helicase. One strand is the sense strand and the other is the anti-sense strand. Then mRNA nucleotides pair with their complimentary DNA bases on the antisense strand. The enzyme RNA polymerase causes the mRNA nucleotides to bond with one another, forming a strand of mRNA.

What happens During replication DNA .?

During DNA replication the following occurs: 1) An enzyme called helicase separates the DNA strands (the space where they separate is called the replication fork). 2) DNA polymerase adds complementary nucleotides to the separated strand of DNA. 3) The DNA polymerase enzyme finishes adding nucleotides and there are two identical DNA molecules.


The region of the enzyme that is complimentary in shape and charge to the substrate is known as the?

Active site .


Why is it essential that the same restriction enzyme be used to create a transgenic organism?

It is essential so that the enzyme does not cut out nucleotides that is not supposed to.


What enzyme connects the new nucleotide together and proofreads them?

RNA polymerase is the enzyme that connect the new nucleotides together and proofreads them.


What does DNA polymerase breakdown?

DNA polymerase does not break down any substance. It is an enzyme that catalyzed the growth of the complimentary DNA strand. A template is requires for this enzyme to function. It becomes attached to single stranded DNA and encodes the complimentary strand by assembling nucleotides.
