What is the function of DNA helicare in DNA replication?

DNA Helicase unwinds and unzips the DNA. It separates the two strands of DNA so DNA replication can occur.

What process begins when DNA unzips?

The process that begins when DNA unzips is called DNA replication. During replication, the two strands of the DNA double helix separate, and each strand serves as a template for the creation of a new complementary strand. This process ensures that each new cell receives an identical copy of the genetic information.


What is necessary for transcription?

DNA polymerase is the enzyme that "unzips" the complementary DNA strands allowing mRNA to transcribe, or copy, a section of DNA.


The enzyme amylase un zips or winds the DNA strand?

The enzyme helicase unzips the DNA strand not amylase.


What enzyme unzips the DNA double helix?

The enzyme responsible for unzipping the DNA double helix during replication is called helicase. Helicase breaks the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs, allowing the DNA strands to separate and be copied.


What is the enzyme that unzips DNA for translation?

The enzyme that unzips DNA for transcription is called RNA polymerase. It separates the two strands of the DNA double helix and synthesizes a single-stranded RNA copy of one of the DNA strands.


How is mRNA differint from DNA?

The mRNA comes into the DNA when the DNA unzips. Then the mRNA attaches to one side of the DNA, copies it down, and leaves. Remember, AT CG


Is duplicate or is duplicated?

When a cell duplicates, both the DNA and the chromosomes duplicate.


What does the helicase enzyme do?

Helicase is an enzyme involved in DNA replication. It unwinds and unzips the parental DNA strand.
