Generation

Gene transcription is the process where a specific segment of DNA is copied into RNA by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. The enzyme binds to a promoter region near the gene, unwinds the DNA double helix, and reads one strand as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA molecule. This RNA transcript (called mRNA in eukaryotes) then detaches and can be translated into a protein, while the DNA rezips behind the polymerase. The process is tightly regulated by transcription factors that help control which genes are turned "on" or "off" in different cells and conditions.
