Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In the first step, the information in DNA is transferred to a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule by way of a process called transcription.
Detailed explanation-2: -Transcription Initiation. The first step in transcription is initiation, when the RNA pol binds to the DNA upstream (5′) of the gene at a specialized sequence called a promoter (Figure 2a).
Detailed explanation-3: -The initial stage of protein synthesis is called transcription, where a complementary code from one strand of DNA is copied onto a special ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule, called messenger RNA (mRNA).
