DNA transcription RNA polymerase ribonucleotide triphosphates DNA polymerase tRNA mRNA RNA transcript exons introns The process of transferring genetic information from DNA to RNA in the nucleus is known as _____. First, _____ binds to the promoter region of a gene and separates the two strands of the DNA double helix. Free _____ base-pair with the deoxynucleotides in the template strand of DNA. The ribonucleotides paired with strands of _____ are linked by RNA polymerase to form a primary RNA transcript. The _____ contain a sequence of bases complementary to the template strand of the DNA base sequence. RNA splicing removes _____ in the primary RNA transcript, which contain noncoding sequences, and splices together _____, which code for specific amino acids. The final result is a molecule of _____.Explanation / Answer
1. The processing of transferring genetic information from DNA into RNA is called as Transcription
2. First, RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region of a gene and unwinds the double helix DNA (about 14 basepairs wide).
3. Free ribonucleotide trophosphates basepair with the deoxynucleotides in the template strand of the DNA
4. Ribonucleotides paired with the DNA strands are linked by RNA polymerase to form a primary RNA transcript.
5.The RNA transcript contains a sequence of bases complimentary to the template strand of the DNA base sequence.
6. RNA splicing removes introns in the primary transcript which contain noncoding sequences and splices together exons together which code for specific amino acids
7. The final result is a molecule of mature mRNA
