Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the process of transcription, which is the synthesis of RNA from a DNA template.
Recall that transcription requires an enzyme to read the DNA sequence and build a complementary RNA strand.
Identify the enzyme responsible for this process; it binds to the DNA and assembles RNA nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction.
Recognize that DNA ligase is involved in joining DNA fragments, helicase unwinds DNA during replication, and DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA, not RNA.
Conclude that the enzyme responsible for synthesizing RNA from a DNA template during transcription is RNA polymerase.
