transcription.

 T he discovery of DNA was one of the most significant findings in the field of science. Today, deeper insight into the DNA structure has unravelled answers to questions that have been around for eons. The Central dogma explains how the DNA codes for the proteins which proceed in three stages, namely, replication, transcription and translation. Once DNA replicates its two strands, the information is copied into RNA by the process called transcription. Let’s learn more about the process of transcription. Table of Contents Definition Explanation RNA Polymerase Stages Initiation Elongation Termination Processing Transcription Definition “Transcription is the first step of gene expression that involves the formation of RNA molecucle from DNA.” What is Transcription? It is one of the first processes in gene expression. The genetic information flows from DNA to protein and this flow of information takes place in a sequential process of transcription and translation. Only one strand of DNA is
