A) DNA polymerase binds to a single-stranded DNA template (blue) and synthesizes a complementary ... From these data, the sequence of the newly synthesized DNA strand is determined, as shown ...

Transcription is the process by which the genetic information in DNA is copied into a complementary RNA strand. RNA polymerase enzymes read the DNA sequence and synthesize messenger RNA (mRNA) ...

Researchers begin with a long strand of DNA, the scaffold, in solution. Because the nucleotide bases that make up DNA bind in a known way (adenine binds to thymine, and guanine binds to cytosine), the ...
