  1. Transcription: an overview of DNA transcription (article) | Khan Academy

    Transcription is the first step in gene expression, in which information from a gene is used to construct a functional product such as a protein. The goal of transcription is to make a RNA copy of a gene's …

  2. Stages of transcription - Khan Academy

    An in-depth looks at how transcription works. Initiation (promoters), elongation, and termination.

  3. DNA replication and RNA transcription and translation

    Replication creates identical DNA strands, while transcription converts DNA into messenger RNA (mRNA). Translation then decodes mRNA into amino acids, forming proteins essential for life functions.

  4. Transcription and mRNA processing - Khan Academy

    Transcription is when we take the information encoded in the gene in DNA and encode essentially that same information in mRNA. So transcription we are going from DNA to messenger RNA, and we're …

  5. Transcription factors (article) | Khan Academy

    Proteins called transcription factors, however, play a particularly central role in regulating transcription. These important proteins help determine which genes are active in each cell of your body.

  6. Transcription and mRNA processing (article) | Khan Academy

    During transcription, a gene's nucleotide sequence (DNA) is copied to form messenger RNA (mRNA), which serves as a temporary blueprint. In eukaryotes, this occurs in the nucleus.

  7. Eukaryotic pre-mRNA processing | RNA splicing (article) - Khan Academy

    The molecule that's directly made by transcription in one of your (eukaryotic) cells is called a pre-mRNA, reflecting that it needs to go through a few more steps to become an actual messenger RNA (mRNA).

  8. Les étapes de la transcription (leçon) | Khan Academy

    La transcription est une étape essentielle de l'exploitation des informations génétiques de notre ADN pour fabriquer des protéines. Les protéines sont les molécules clés qui structurent les cellules et les …

  9. Eukaryotic gene transcription: Going from DNA to mRNA

    In cells, transcription is the process that resembles copying a recipe onto a 3x5 card and sliding it under the office door. The 3x5 card, with the recipe written on it, is analogous to a messenger RNA …

  10. Resumen de la transcripción (artículo) | Khan Academy

    Reece, J. B., Urry, L. A., Cain, M. L., Wasserman, S. A., Minorsky, P. V. y Jackson, R. B. (2011). Transcription is the DNA-directed synthesis of RNA: A closer look (La transcricpción es la síntesis de …
