    Study Notes

    Eukaryotic Transcription

    • The three sequential stages of eukaryotic transcription are initiation, elongation, and termination.
    • Eukaryotic transcription occurs in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.

    RNA Polymerase

    • RNA polymerase is the enzyme that initiates the transcription of all different types of RNA in prokaryotic cells.
    • RNA polymerase II is the type of RNA polymerase that transcribes protein-coding genes into messenger RNAs (mRNAs).

    Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)

    • Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) serves as the structural components of the ribosome.
    • RNA polymerase I transcribes rRNA.
