What is the function of RNA polymerase?

  • Transcription

  • Replication

Transcription is the process of copying a gene's DNA sequence into a complementary RNA molecule. RNA polymerase, an enzyme, is responsible for this process. It binds to the DNA template and unwinds the double helix, allowing the RNA nucleotides to pair with their complementary bases on the DNA strand.
