Which of the following is an example of a protein that can read the sequence of DNA without opening the double helix?
A)RNA polymerase
B)DNA polymerase
C)Helicase
D)Transcription factors
E)Primase

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transcription factors can recognize and bind to specific DNA sequences without opening the double helix. This binding helps to recruit RNA polymerase for gene transcription. RNA polymerase uses the DNA template to synthesize RNA without separating the two strands of the DNA double helix. DNA polymerase, on the other hand, requires an already separated DNA template for DNA replication. Helicase and Primase are also involved in DNA replication and require strand separation.
