How does RNA polymerase know where to start transcribing a gene into mRNA?
The enzyme that synthesizes RNA (RNA polymerase) binds specific DNA sequencesthat typically lie before the gene being transcribed. When everything it needs to start synthesis is properly assembled (any cofactors, etc.), only then can it begin transcribing DNA into RNA.
A point mutation involves a change in an?
A point mutation is a genetic mutation when a wrong nucleotide bonded to DNA during replication. Usually, DNA polymerase can prevent that because it's an enzyme that finds the right nucleotides to bond to new DNA strands.
What do you call a person who finds cures?
Pharmacologist
What is the attachment site for RNA polymerase?
according to information from http://www.rothamsted.ac.uk/notebook/courses/guide/trans.htm " if the RNA polymerase attaches to a special sequence called a promoter, an additional small protein, the factor sigma, will also attach to the polymerase and lock it on the DNA. The factor 'sigma' will only attach itself to the complex DNA / RNA polymerase when the RNA polymerase is attached to a promoter. Another hypothesis is that the factor sigma attaches to RNApol anyway and the enzyme is then able to slide along the DNA until it finds a promoter. It prevents detaching and speeds up promoter location, and decreases the affinity of RNApol for general regions of DNA. " Therefore, the answer seems to be, RNA attaches to DNA through a small protein called the factor sigma once the RNA polymerase attaches itself to a chain sequence called a "promoter". according to information from http://www.rothamsted.ac.uk/notebook/courses/guide/trans.htm " if the RNA polymerase attaches to a special sequence called a promoter, an additional small protein, the factor sigma, will also attach to the polymerase and lock it on the DNA.

Actually there are many promoter and many genes but which gene to be transcribed is decided by sigma factor.

What is the term that describes sequence of DNA that a restriction enzyme finds and cuts?
Template Sequence
Does a restriction enzyme generate the same size fragments in genomic DNA of different species?
No. A restriction enzyme cuts DNA when it finds a specific sequence. Different animals will have these sequences occur at different intervals so the length of the fragments won't be the same.
What are restriction enzymes?
Restriction enzymes (also known as restriction endonucleases) are proteins which cut DNA up at specific sequences in the genome. For example, the commonly used restriction endonuclease EcoRI recognizes every point in DNA with the sequence GAATTC, and cuts at the point between the Guanine and Adenine. Interestingly, the recognition sequences for most restriction endonucleases are genetic palindromes, e.g., the sequence reads exactly the same backwards on the complementary strand. In the case of EcoRI, the two complementary DNA strands for the recognition sequence are: 5'--GAATTC ---3'3'--CTTAAG--5'

What is an indicators and Enzyme test?
An indicator and enzyme test determines if DNA matches. It is used most frequently when DNA is found at a crime scenes and then needed to match a suspects. The Enzymes breaks up the DNA and finds matches in the code (nucleo tides). The indicator then identifies where the matches are.
