Question

Listed below are steps in the transcription process.  Reorganize the list so the steps in the correct order- starting with the first step in initiating transcription and ending with completion of a new strand of RNA (in other words- from start to finish of transcription).

  1. RNA polymerase reaches the termination signal
  2. DNA unwinds underneath RNA polymerase at transcription start site
  3. RNA polymerase is recruited to the promoter region
  4. mRNA transcript is released
  5. General Transcription factors bind TATA box (and other DNA sequences) in the promoter region
  6. General Transcription Factors unbind from promoter region
  7. mRNA transcript synthesis occurs
  8. RNA polymerase moves along the template strand in the 3’ to 5’ direction

 

 

Expert Solution
Step 1

 

Correct steps of Transcription are as follows.

 

1. General Transcription factors bind TATA box

(and other DNA sequences) in the Promoter region

2. RNA polymerase is recruited to the Promoter region.

3. DNA Unwinds underneath RNA polymerase at transcription start site.

4. RNA polymerase moves along the template strand in the 3 to 5 direction.

5. mRNA transcript synthesis occurs.

6. General Transcription factors unbind from promoter region.

7. RNA Polymerase reaches the terminal signal.

9. mRNA transcript is released
