During transcription what molecule opens the DNA?

During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase opens the DNA double helix to expose a segment of the DNA that will be transcribed into RNA.


What type of protein opens up DNA molecules to start transcription of mRNA?

RNA polymerase is the protein that unwinds and opens up the DNA double helix to initiate transcription of mRNA by reading and copying the DNA sequence into RNA.


What are the basic steps in asexual reproduction among bacteria?

They reproduce by Process called BINARY FISSION Binary fission begins with DNA replication. DNA replication starts from an origin of replication, which opens up into a replication bubble (note: prokaryotic DNA replication usually has only 1 origin of replication, whereas eukaryotes have multiple origins of replication). The replication bubble separates the DNA double strand, each strand acts as template for synthesis of a daughter strand by semiconservative replication, until the entire prokaryotic DNA is duplicated. After this replicational process, cell growth occurs. Each circular DNA strand then attaches to the cell membrane. The cell elongates, causing the two chromosomes to separate. Cell division in bacteria is controlled by the FtsZ, a collection of about a dozen proteins that collect around the site of division. There, they direct assembly of the division septum. The cell wall and plasma membrane starts growing transversely from near the middle of the dividing cell. This separates the parent cell into two nearly equal daughter cells, each having a nuclear body. The cell membrane then invaginates (grows inwards) and splits the cell into two daughter cells, separated by a newly grown cell plate.

What is DNA-replication?

DNA replication is a process during which DNA double helix opens like a zipper , new nucleotides are added along both strands of DNA by enzyme DNA polmerase and at last two molecules of DNA are formed. It takes place in S phase of interphase .

What is the DNA strand that is synthesized continuously during DNA replication?

The leading strand is the DNA strand that is synthesized continuously during DNA replication. This is because the polymerase enzyme can add nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction without interruption as the replication fork opens.

What is DNA replicated before?


The cellular process of creating two new DNA molecules from one original copy is called replication Which statement is the BEST description of this process?

During DNA replication, the double-stranded DNA molecule unwinds and each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary strand. Enzymes called DNA polymerases add nucleotides to the growing strand in a direction from 5' to 3'. The end result is two identical DNA molecules, each containing one original strand and one newly synthesized strand.
