polymerase
(Science: enzyme) enzymes that catalyse the synthesis of nucleic acids on preexisting nucleic acid templates, assembling rNA from ribonucleotides or dNA from deoxyribonucleotides.
An enzyme that catalyzes the formation of new DNA and RNA from an existing strand of DNA or RNA.An enzyme promoting the joining together of nucleic acids with one another.
Genes are expressed through the process of protein synthesis. This elaborate tutorial provides an in-depth review of the different steps of the biological production of protein starting from the gene up to the process of secretion. Also included are topics on DNA replication during interphase of the cell cycle, DNA mutation and repair mechanisms, gene pool, modification, and diseases...
Learn about the general structure of a eukaryotic gene, the transcription factors, and post-transcriptional regulation...
Learn how the way genes control and determine every aspect of the body. This lesson uses lac operon as an example. ..
Part of the genetic information is devoted to the synthesis of proteins. mRNA, a type of RNA, is produced as a transcript that carries the code for protein synthesis. Read this tutorial for further details...
