For tips on using BioCoach, read the BioCoach Instructions . Inc. All Rights Reserved. You will find information about the organization of genes, the structure of RNA, the transcription process, and the differences between mRNA in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Animations show the transcription process in a dynamic way.
You can test your understanding of transcription by using the Self-Quiz at the end of the Guide. By continuing on to the BioCoach Activity on Translation, you can then learn about how mRNA is translated into protein. For the Transcription and Translation Activities, it may be helpful to review DNA structure and DNA replication.
