Document Summary

Rna binds to itself and tries to find partially complementary sequences to give itself from structural support. Dna transcription produces a single-stranded rna molecules that is complementary to one strand of the double-stranded dna. The sequence of bases in the rna molecule produced is the same as the sequence of bases in the non-template strand, except that a u replaces every t: mrna- messenger rna; encodes proteins. Rna pol binds to promoter on bottom strand (3"-5") Rna synthesis is from 5" to 3" Rna pol (unlike dna pol) has no editing function. Why doesn"t rna pol need an editing function: due to splicing of introns. If rna is wrong and the protein is wrong- the protein will likely be degraded, or the protein wont work therefore won"t effect cell function: there are so many mrnas made that one wrong one won"t matter.
