During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase binds to a specific region of DNA called the promoter. The DNA double helix unwinds, and RNA polymerase reads the DNA template strand and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand by adding nucleotides. This process continues until a termination signal is reached, resulting in the formation of a single-stranded RNA molecule that is complementary to the DNA template.

What does DNA and RNA ultimately construct?

DNA is transcribed into RNA which is translated into proteins. Only a small percentage of DNA and RNA become proteins. Some of the time the process stops after DNA is transcribed into RNA.

What is the name of the DNA molecule that is transcribed?

DNA transcription is a process that involves the transcribing of genetic information from DNA to RNA.


What form of RNA is made by the nucleolus?

Ribosomal RNA. It is transcribed from DNA in the nucleolus.


How many strands of RNA are transcribed from the two unzipped strands of DNA?

One strand of RNA is transcribed from each of the two unzipped strands of DNA during transcription. RNA polymerase synthesizes a complementary RNA strand to one of the DNA strands.

How is RNA translated and where?

RNA transcribed in nucleus and transported to cytoplasm for protein synthesis. RNA normally transcribed from DNA at cell nucleus and not translated. It can translates protein if there is a message in coded, in cytoplasm.

RNA polymerase is an example of a?

enzyme involved in transcription, which is the process by which DNA is transcribed into RNA. RNA polymerase is responsible for binding to a gene's DNA and synthesizing an RNA molecule complementary to the DNA template strand.


When DNA is transcribed the product is?

DNA transcription is a process of converting genetic information from DNA to RNA. The RNA may be used to produce proteins if that is what the DNA coded for. In this case, the RNA is called mRNA and the RNA molecule is called a transcription unit. So that would be one answer to this question. ( The process by which the RNA becomes a protein is called translation) Sometimes the DNA does not code for a protein. In these cases the RNA may end up being ribosomal RNA or transfer RNA. These are also possible answers. A general answer might be an RNA molecule corresponding to the DNA molecule that is being transcribed. So the answer is an equivalent RNA sequence for that particular DNA sequence.
