Process of synthesizing an RNA strand from a DNA template strand?
During transcription, RNA polymerase binds to the DNA template strand and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand by adding nucleotides base-paired with the DNA template. The nucleotides are linked together, forming a single-stranded RNA molecule that is complementary to the DNA template. The process ends when RNA polymerase reaches a termination signal on the DNA template.
Semiconservative replication involes a template what is the template?
The template for semiconservative replication is the original DNA strand that serves as a guide for creating a new complementary strand. During DNA replication, each original parental strand acts as a template for the synthesis of a new daughter strand.
What is plus DNA and minus DNA?
If we are talking about viruses and their RNA genomes(eg:HIV), the negative strand DNA synthesis by reverse transcriptase occurs in the host cells, when the virus infects the host. And then, plus DNA formed by complementing this minus DNA.
Which strand would be the template for the leading strand?
The leading strand would utilize the 3' to 5' template DNA strand as a guide for continuous synthesis of complementary DNA in the 5' to 3' direction by DNA polymerase during DNA replication.
Is RNA is usually single-stranded.?
During transcription, DNA is used as a template to make a copy of single-stranded RNA. only one of the two DNA strands is used as a template for RNA synthesis. therefore only one complementary strand of RNA is usually made

What is the directionality of DNA synthesis when the template strand is read from 3' to 5'?
When the template strand of DNA is read from 3' to 5', DNA synthesis occurs in the 5' to 3' direction.
The direction of synthesis of an RNA transcript is?
transcription:"the first step in protein synthesis, a sequence of nucleotide bases becomes exposed in an unwound region of a DNA strand. That sequence acts as a template upon which a single strand of RNA - a transcript - is synthesized from free nucleotides."The synthesis of an RNA molecule from the DNA template strand is called transcription.
What strand is the messenger rna complementary to?
mRNA is complementary to the template strand of DNA during transcription. The template strand serves as a template for mRNA synthesis, directing the formation of a complementary mRNA transcript.
Semiconservative replication involes a template what is the template?
The template for semiconservative replication is the original DNA strand that serves as a guide for creating a new complementary strand. During DNA replication, each original parental strand acts as a template for the synthesis of a new daughter strand.
What is the relationship between the template strand and the mRNA transcribed from it?
The template strand is used as a guide to create mRNA during transcription. The mRNA is complementary to the template strand and carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.
In which direction does replication occur 3 to 5 or 5 to 3?
Replication occurs in the 5' to 3' direction. The new DNA strand is synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction, while the parental template strand acts as the template for this synthesis. This directionality allows for continuous synthesis on one strand (leading strand) and discontinuous synthesis on the other strand (lagging strand).
The strand of DNA that is not transcribed is called the strand.?
The strand of DNA that is not transcribed is called the coding strand. This strand serves as the template for mRNA synthesis during transcription. The opposite strand, which is transcribed into mRNA, is known as the template strand.
How many strands does mRNA have?
mRNA typically consists of a single strand of nucleotides. It serves as a temporary copy of the genetic information in DNA and carries this information from the nucleus to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.
What is plus DNA and minus DNA?
If we are talking about viruses and their RNA genomes(eg:HIV), the negative strand DNA synthesis by reverse transcriptase occurs in the host cells, when the virus infects the host. And then, plus DNA formed by complementing this minus DNA.
What strand of DNA is used to make a complementary copy or to make a complementary mRNA molecule-?
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.
Is single strand DNA or RNA more commonly found in viruses?
RNA is more commonly found in viruses than single-strand DNA.
