RNA polymerase's main job is to transcribe mRNA from double stranded DNA. It does so by recognizing promoter region in ds DNA and binds over there. Sigma factor is a subunit of RNA polymerase that helps in locating promoter region. RNA polymerase simply synthesized complimentary base pairs from DNA template and makes mRNA. so there is no need of primer at all.

∙ 12y agobecause in the rna molecules there are special regions where rna polymerase binds known as promoter but in the DNA there is no such a thing
Wiki User
∙ 12y agobecause RNA polymerase can undertake the same activity that a Primase can.

What is the function of these short RNA segments during replication?
they form mrna molecules used in translation
What is a RNA primer removed by?
The RNA primer is removed by RNaseH. It is an endonuclease that removes DNA/RNA hybrids only. It moves from 5' -> 3'.
How many nucleotides is in the RNA primer?
i nt answer it
Why is it called a RNA primer?
The RNA primer is referred to a short RNA fragment into which are added deoxyribonucleotides by DNA polymerase III during DNA replication. The primer stimulates the synthesis of the new chain by participating in the initiation of polymerization of the desoxyribonucleotides. In nucleic acid chemistry, a primer can be a short, either single-stranded RNA or DNA, segment that functions as the starting point for the polymerization of nucleotides.
What does DNA primase create?
DNA primase creates RNA primer. DNA primase is an enzyme and DNA polymerase uses the RNA primer to replicate ssDNA.

What primer is needed at the origin of nucleotide addition?
A primer of RNA
What is the function of primer in PCR?
it synthesizes a single RNA primer at the 5' end of the leading end.

DNA primase creates RNA primer. DNA primase is an enzyme and DNA polymerase uses the RNA primer to replicate ssDNA.
Which of these is responsible for catalyzing the formation of an RNA primer?
Primase. It's usually depicted on the leading strand as square/rectangle.
Why only RNA primer provide 3-OH' end for DNA replication?
The reason you only need RNA primer at the end to make a DNA replication is because it has a free 3' OH. RNA is ribonucleic acid. RNA contains long chains of nucleotides.
What type of RNA is involved in translation?
ribosomal RNA and transfer RNA
What does the synthesis of a new strand of DNA begin?
Following the initiation of DNA replication, the first step is the synthesis of a short RNA primer.
Which is NOT a form of ribonucleic acid or RNA?
Translation RNA
