Lesson 3: Transcription and RNA Processing
Duration of Days: 2
Lesson Objective
Explain how the process of transcription copies genetic information from DNA to RNA, and describe the structural modifications made to a eukaryotic RNA transcript.
How does RNA polymerase know where to start and stop copying a gene?
How does alternative RNA splicing allow a limited number of genes to produce a vastly diverse array of proteins?
6.3-Transcription & RNA Processing
Explain how RNA polymerase selectively copies specific genes and how eukaryotic cells heavily modify this raw RNA transcript before it ever leaves the nucleus.
