Yes.
RNA is created through a process known as transcription where a single strand of DNA is used as a template to build a single strand of RNA. This process relies on the bases in DNA pairing with those in the RNA.
Small non-coding RNA's also bind with DNA after transcription to regulate various cellular functions.
What else can I help you with?
What sugar distinguishes from DNA and RNA?
The sugar that distinguishes DNA from RNA is deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA. Deoxyribose lacks one oxygen atom compared to ribose, which affects the stability and functionality of the respective molecules.
Why rna primer is used instead of dna primer?
There are basically two types of enzymes that can bind to DNA and copy it. The DNA polymerase and the RNA polymerase. The RNA polymerase, which copies DNA into RNA, will only bind to single stranded DNA, in other words areas of the DNA where the nitrogen bases holding the two strands of nucleotide units together have been separated. On the other hand the DNA polymerase that copies DNA into DNA will only bind to DNA that is double stranded. So in lies the dilemma. To make a copy of the DNA the DNA polymerase is use, but it will not bind to single stranded DNA so there is no way to make a DNA primer using aDNA polymerase, but the RNA polymerase will bind to single stranded DNA and there for can be used to make a small RNA primer on the open strands of DNA. Now the DNA polymerase has place that is double stranded and can attach and start copying the DNA.
What enzyme transcribes DNA?
The enzyme that transcribes the DNA into RNA is called RNA polymerase.
What does reverse transcriptase use from DNA?
Reverse transcriptase use mRNA to form DNA. mRNA
The enzyme responsible for making RNa is called what?
RNA helps make up the DNA by having the sugar and other impotant things that helps the RNA make the DNA.
Why does DNA make RNA?
DNA makes RNA so then the DNA can replicate itself. RNA is typically single stranded copy, in a sense, of the DNA and there are two types: mRNA and tRNA.
RNA is accociated with?
RNA (Ribonucleic Acid)...this is the messenger of the DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) The RNA carries directions from the DNA to the Ribosomes that tell the Ribosomes what protein to make and how to do it. RNA reads the blueprint (DNA)
How are RNA and DNA used to make protein?
DNA has coded instructions for making proteins, and RNA translates the code.
Is a phosphate DNA or RNA?
Both DNA and RNA contain a sugar phosphate group as the backbone to their structure. In DNA the sugar is deoxyribose, where as in RNA it is just ribose.
Which statement best illustrates the function of RNA in relation to DNA and proteins?
Proteins make RNA, which then creates DNA.
How can you tell if isolated RNA is free of DNA?
There is a DNA killing step in RNA isolation by the enzyme DNase I. This will make sure your preparation is free of DNA.
What must happen to a DNA molcule before RNA polymerase can make RNA?
Before RNA polymerase can make RNA, the DNA molecule must be unwound and the double helix separated to expose the sequence of nucleotides that will be used to transcribe the RNA. This process is facilitated by proteins that help open the DNA molecule for transcription.
What sugar distinguishes from DNA and RNA?
The sugar that distinguishes DNA from RNA is deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA. Deoxyribose lacks one oxygen atom compared to ribose, which affects the stability and functionality of the respective molecules.

Does the nucleus make RNA?
No. The DNA is copied by ribosomes in the endoplasmic reticulum to form the RNA strands.
What enzyme transcribes DNA?
The enzyme that transcribes the DNA into RNA is called RNA polymerase.
What does reverse transcriptase use from DNA?
Reverse transcriptase use mRNA to form DNA. mRNA
