There are a variety of different types of RNA polymerases that can transcribe different types of RNA. RNA polymerase II, shown here, is responsible for creating messenger RNA (mRNA), which is the main ...

and do not require RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) or amplification mechanisms. Other loci form small RNAs after the primary transcripts are processed through dsRNA-forming mechanisms that ...

Three different types of RNA polymerase exist in eukaryotic cells ... through a mechanism similar to rho-dependent termination in bacteria. Transcription of pol III genes ends after transcribing ...

RNA repair enzymes capable of sealing 2’,3’-cyclic-PO 4 /5’-OH breaks or 3’-OH/5’-PO 4 breaks are present in diverse taxa in all phylogenetic domains of life. ATP-dependent RNA ligases join 3’-OH and ...
