| Front | Describe transcription. |
|---|---|
| Back | - DNA helicase breaks H bonds to separate strands - exposes gene - only one strand used as template - free RNA nucleotides pair with complementary DNA bases - U with A, A with T, C with G and G with C - RNA polymerase forms phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides - by condensation reactions - continues along the length of the molecule - forming sugar phosphate backbone - forms primary mRNA transcript |
