For transcription to occur, the double helix structure of DNA must unwind and separate at the promoter region of the gene being transcribed. This unwinding exposes the template strand of the DNA, allowing RNA polymerase to synthesize a complementary RNA strand by adding ribonucleotides according to the sequence of the DNA template. The DNA helix reforms after the transcription process is complete.
