What causes DNA to uncoil during transcription?
A) binding of tRNA to the initiator codon
B) binding of helicase to the DNA
C) binding of DNA polymerase to the leader sequence
D) binding of RNA polymerase to the promoter sequence
E) binding of ubiquitin to the DNA

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During transcription, RNA polymerase binds to the promoter sequence of DNA, initiating the process and causing the DNA to uncoil so that the enzyme can read the DNA sequence and synthesize RNA.
