RNA Polymerase
The enzyme RNA polymerase transcribes DNA. This enzyme initiates transcription, joins the RNA nucleotides together, and terminates.
The enzyme that catalyzes transcription is called RNA polymerase.
The enzyme that catalyzes transcription in cells is called RNA polymerase.
RNA polymerase is the enzyme that binds to DNA during transcription.
DNA polymerase is the enzyme that "unzips" the complementary DNA strands allowing mRNA to transcribe, or copy, a section of DNA.
The enzyme responsible for reading DNA during transcription is called RNA polymerase.
Transcription of an inducible enzyme is triggered by the presence of specific substrates or signals that activate transcription factors. These factors bind to promoter regions of the gene encoding the enzyme, facilitating the recruitment of RNA polymerase. This process often involves the removal of repressive elements or the binding of activators that enhance gene expression in response to environmental changes. As a result, the enzyme is produced only when needed, allowing for efficient metabolic regulation.
Reverse transcriptase is the enzyme used in reverse transcription to generate complementary DNA (cDNA) from an RNA template.
The synthesis of an inducible enzyme requires the presence of specific substrates or signals that trigger gene expression. This process typically involves the binding of an inducer molecule to a regulatory protein, which then activates the transcription of the gene encoding the enzyme. Additionally, cellular mechanisms such as transcription factors and RNA polymerase play crucial roles in facilitating the transcription and subsequent translation of the enzyme. Overall, the process ensures that the enzyme is produced only when needed, allowing for efficient metabolic regulation.
The transcription helicase enzyme helps to unwind the double-stranded DNA by breaking the hydrogen bonds between the two strands. This allows the RNA polymerase enzyme to access the DNA template and create a complementary RNA strand during the transcription process.
RNA polymerase is the enzyme that adds and links complementary RNA nucleotides during transcription
