The process of DNA being used to make RNA is called transcription. During transcription, RNA polymerase enzyme unwinds a section of DNA and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand by adding nucleotides according to the base pairing rules. This newly synthesized RNA molecule then serves as a template for protein synthesis during the process of translation.
The template strand of DNA is used to make a complementary copy during DNA replication, while the antisense (non-coding) strand is used as a template for complementary mRNA synthesis during transcription.
A strand of DNA
The genetic code on the template strand is used to make a complementary mRNA strand during transcription. It follows the rules of base pairing, where adenine pairs with uracil and cytosine pairs with guanine. This process helps in the synthesis of proteins during translation.
In DNA replication, an existing DNA strand (template strand) is used to guide the assembly of a new complementary DNA strand. Enzymes like DNA polymerase add complementary nucleotides to each template strand, resulting in two identical DNA molecules. This process ensures accurate transmission of genetic information during cell division.
Yes, that's correct. Transcription is the process by which the genetic information in a segment of DNA is used to create a complementary RNA strand. This RNA molecule can then be used to direct the synthesis of proteins in a cell.
The process of DNA replication.
The template strand of DNA is used to make a complementary copy during DNA replication, while the antisense (non-coding) strand is used as a template for complementary mRNA synthesis during transcription.
The DNA template strand is used to create mRNA.
The process that produces mRNA is known as transcription. In this process a single DNA strand is used to make a copy of mRNA.
No, just one strand, the coding strand is used to create a mRNA molecule in the process of transcription.
The template strand is used to make a complementary copy. This is a type of DNA strand.
