How is DNA converted into RNA?

In this episode, we continue our conversation in molecular biology by focusing on the first stage of the Central Dogma: transcription. We explore this process in tremendous detail⎯from the unique proteins involved in initiation, elongation, and termination to the many ways transcription differs between prokaryotes and eukaryotes.


Part 1: Overview

- Transcription

- RNA vs. DNA
