If DNA is a book, then how is it read? Learn more about the DNA transcription process, where DNA is converted to RNA, a more portable set of instructions for the cell. The process of transcription can ...

Gene expression is linked to RNA transcription, which cannot happen without RNA polymerase. However, this is where the similarities between prokaryote and eukaryote expression end. Central to the ...

This method for directly enriching the 5´ end of primary transcripts enables the determination of transcription start sites at single-base resolution. Coupled with long read sequencing, the method ...

A team of physicists working at the intersection of theory and experiment are shedding new light on the “teamwork” of molecular motors—called RNA polymerases (RNAPs)—that mediate DNA transcription.
