Resource summary

Transcription at a molecular level
  1. central dogma
    1. nucleotide->amino acid
      1. DNA->mRNA->Proteins
      2. mRNA read by ribosome to make an amino acid sequence
        1. 1 gene= 1 protein
          1. DNA more stable then RNA
            1. DNA - 2 strands bound by hydrogen bonds
              1. RNA single stranded
              2. transcription unit
                1. left=upstream
                  1. promoter is upstream of transcription unit
                  2. right=downstream
                  3. RNAP reads single DNA strand and makes complement
                    1. terminator tells RNAP when to stop transcribing DNA
