Transcription is very similar to DNA replication but there are some important differencesi 1, RNA is made of ribonucleotides 2. RNa polymerase catalyzes the reaction 3. The synthesized rNA does not remain base-paired to the template DNA strand 4. Less accurate (error rate: 10-4)

5. Transcription selectively copies only certain parts of the genome and makes one to several hundred, or even thousand copies of any given section of the genome(Replication?)

10 RNA polymerases come in different forms, but share many features ◼ RNA polymerases performs essentially the same reaction in all cells ◼ Bacteria have only a single RNA polymerases while in eukaryotic cells there are three: RNA Pol I, II and III RNA polymerase and the transcription cycle
rna Pol Ii is the focus of eukaryotic transcription, because it is the most studied polymerase and is also responsible for transcribing most genes-indeed essentially all protein-encoding genes a RNA Pol I transcribe the large ribosomal RNa precursor gene RNA Pol II transcribe tRNA gene some small nuclear RNA genes and the 5s rRNA genes
