Prokaryotic Transcription Eukaryotic Transcription Both
Prokaryotic Transcription Eukaryotic Transcription Both Follow the stages of: 1)Initiation 2)Elongation 3)Termination
Prokaryotic Transcription Eukaryotic Transcription Both Follow the stages of: 1)Initiation 2)Elongation 3)Termination Require recognition of a promoter on DNA by RNA polymerase enzyme
Prokaryotic Transcription Eukaryotic Transcription Both Follow the stages of: 1)Initiation 2)Elongation 3)Termination Require recognition of a promoter on DNA by RNA polymerase enzyme Synthesize RNA in 5’ 3’ direction, using DNA as a template
Prokaryotic Transcription Eukaryotic Transcription Both Follow the stages of: 1)Initiation 2)Elongation 3)Termination Require recognition of a promoter on DNA by RNA polymerase enzyme Synthesize RNA in 5’ 3’ direction, using DNA as a template Initiation requires no transcription factors – RNA polymerase binds directly to promoter Initiation requires transcription factors – RNA polymerase cannot bind directly to promoter
Prokaryotic Transcription Eukaryotic Transcription Both Follow the stages of: 1)Initiation 2)Elongation 3)Termination Require recognition of a promoter on DNA by RNA polymerase enzyme Synthesize RNA in 5’ 3’ direction, using DNA as a template Initiation requires no transcription factors – RNA polymerase binds directly to promoter RNA transcript produced from transcription is the final mRNA, requiring no further processing/modifica tion Initiation requires transcription factors – RNA polymerase cannot bind directly to promoter RNA transcript produced from transcription is not the final mRNA; rather, it is a pre- mRNA that requires further processing/modifica tion
