Detailed explanation-1: -During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase (green) uses DNA as a template to produce a pre-mRNA transcript (pink). The pre-mRNA is processed to form a mature mRNA molecule that can be translated to build the protein molecule (polypeptide) encoded by the original gene.
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: -Use the codon table to determine the sequence of amino acids that will be produced from a DNA or mRNA sequence. Use the codon table to determine which amino acid will be carried by a tRNA, given the anticodon sequence. Identify untranslated regions and include these regions in gene diagrams.
