  • DNA, RNA, & Proteins. Who's Walking the Dogma?

    We know that RNA comes from the transcription of DNA and we know that proteins come from the translation of RNA but we don't have an arrow telling us where the DNA comes from.

    Take any RNA polymerase and describe the sequence of events of transcription of a specific DNA sequence. Include the assembly of the preiniation complex through elongation to termination.

  • Compare and Contrast DNA and RNA

    These chromosomes would then release the genetic codes that will be transcribed (through the process of transcription) and carried by the RNA (specifically the messenger RNA) to the ribosome.

  • Difference between replication, transcription, and translation

    Transcription is the process by which RNA is made using a DNA template, or pattern. Both DNA and RNA are made up of nucleotides. To remember this, think of the job of a Medical Transcriptionist.

  • Overview of transcription and translation

    In this step, RNA makes a copy, through base-pairing, of the DNA template strand. The RNA strand will contain U in place of T and there is not thymine in RNA. The single strand of RNA that is produced is mRNA. 3. Termination.
