RNA polymerase, molecular model

---

RNA (ribonucleic acid) polymerase, molecular model. The enzyme RNA polymerase uses a strand of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) as a template for the biosynthesis of RNA. The protein appears here in a ribbon structure, coloured grey. The polymerization uses a double strand of DNA (green) that is unwound by a helicase enzyme. One of the DNA strands is used as the template for the transcription of RNA (orange).
