IntroductionTranscription
Transcription is a process that occurs within the nucleus of a cell where a single strand of DNA is used to produce a complementary strand of RNA. The type of RNA
produced is mRNA.

Types of RNAmRNA
Messenger RNA An RNA molecule
transcribed from the DNA of a gene
Once mRNA is complete, proteins are translated from mRNA by the help of RIBOSOMES
Types of RNA
mRNA
snRNA
tRNA
rRNA

GenesGenes, used during the
process of transcription, have two major segments.Regulatory regionCoding region
Both regions play a role during transcription.
Within the regulatory region, there is a special region known as the promoter region.

Strands of TranscriptionTemplate Strand
In transcription, known as the Complementary Strand (cDNA)
A molecular “mold” that shapes the structure or sequence of another molecule
Controls the nucleotide sequence of RNA during transcription

TranscriptionThe Process

The Process RNA Polymerase, the only
enzyme used during transcription, binds at the promoter region (sequence) and unzips the DNA strand
RNA Polymerase works downstream adding RNA nucleotides to the 3’ end of the newly formed RNA strand New RNA strand grows in the
5’ to 3’ direction RNA Polymerase hits the
“Terminator” sequence that signals the end of transcription
Newly made RNA is released. This RNA is called pre-mRNA.

Post-Transcription

Post-Transcription IThe new RNA strand
is called pre-mRNAWhy? Because the
pre-mRNA needs to be “groomed” for the moment of Translation
Unneeded RNA nucleotide segments, known as introns, need to be removed.
![Page 13: Packet #10 Chapter #8 1. Introduction Transcription Transcription is a process that occurs within the nucleus of a cell where a single strand of DNA is.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56649f305503460f94c4aa89/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Post-Transcription IIThe introns are removed and
the exons, the good regions, are joined together in a process known as splicing.Process completed using the
enzyme known as spliceosome. Spliceosome contains snRNA.
The completed mRNA leaves the nucleus and enters into the cytoplasm ready for translation.
The mRNA carries the genetic code with it.
