Transcription
... It is like DNA replication in that a DNA strand is used to synthesize a strand of mRNA. Only one strand of DNA is copied. A single gene may be transcribed thousands of times. After transcription, the DNA strands rejoin. Steps involved in transcription RNA polymerase recognizes a specific base sequen ...
