Class Notes

1. DNA-dependent RNA polymerase is a metalloenzyme that associates with RNA polymerase to initiate transcription. 2. It identifies the promoter region of DNA, which opens up the double-stranded DNA to form a transcription bubble. 3. After transcribing 9-10 base pairs, it detaches and can combine with another polymerase to modify promoter recognition specificity and RNA transcription.
