Helicase. It breaks the hydrogen bonds holding the complementary bases of DNA together (A with T, C with G). The separation of the two single strands of DNA creates a ‘Y’ shape called a replication ‘fork’. The two separated strands will act as templates for making the new strands of DNA. One oriented in the 3’ to 5’ direction, is the leading strand. The other oriented in the 5’ to 3’ direction is the lagging strand.

The enzyme that oversees mRNA synthesis is known as RNA polymerase. This is the same enzyme that will unwind DNA template during this process.

In Eukaryotes, RNA Polymerase III synthesizes tRNA and aminoacyl tRNA synthetase attaches the amino acid to the tRNA.

What enzyme do you need to get a copy of DNA from mRNA?

Reverse transcriptase is the enzyme used to synthesize DNA from mRNA.


MRNA is needed to synthesize what in the cytoplasm?

protein


What does enzyme synthesize on?

On ribosomes.


When the information from DNA is passed to RNA this process?

The process is called transcription. RNA polymerase enzyme will synthesize RNA (mRNA) from DNA sequences and this is the first step in gene expression.


What works with mRNA to synthesize proteins?

mRNA, tRNA,rRNA, ribosome, amino acid


What is the name of the enzyme that creates mRNA?

RNA polymerase is the enzyme that makes mRNA from a strand of DNA.


What enzyme adds nucleotides of RNA to make the mRna?

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


What enzyme builds mRNA molecules bases on the code in DNA?

The enzyme is RNA polymerase.


Does DNA synthesize proteins?

DNA does not synthesize proteins. But they code for the message needed for the proteins. DNA transcribe mRNA first in the nucleus and send out to cytoplasm. The protein synthesis machinery in the cytoplasm (ribosome) will synthesize proteins according to the message in mRNA.


MRNA is eventually broken down by what enzyme?

Exosomes


Which enzyme transcribes DNA into mRNA?

rna polymerase


How is mRNA used by cell?

Transcription takes the information encoded in DNA and encodes it into mRNA, which then heads out of the cell’s nucleus and into the cytoplasm. During translation, the mRNA works with a ribosome and tRNA to synthesize proteins.
