Transcription begins near a site in the DNA called the promoter, while the terminator specifies the end of transcription. Transcription unit is directly produced from the transcription of a eukaryotic gene. The process of alternative splicing pre-mRNAs causes different proteins to be synthesized. During eukaryotic RNA processing, the nontranslated sequences that are removed are called introns. The region of the tRNA that is complementary to the triplet on the mRNA is the anticodon.

Enter the appropriate word or words into each blank to complete the following statements about RNA synthesis. A. DNA sequence that directs binding of RNA polymerase for transcription of a downstream gene is called a . B. After transcription of eukaryotic genes, sequences are removed from the new RNA molecule, while sequences are stitched together during the process called . c. Mature eukaryotic messenger RNAs (mRNAs) have a 5'- and 3'-end structures known as a and , respectively, that are absent from prokaryotic mRNAs. D. In addition to using different substrates (rNTPs rather than dNTPs), RNA polymerases differ from DNA polymerases in that they do not require a to initiate de novo synthesis of RNA and do not have activity, which is responsible for error correction.
