Template strand

Vedclass · Answer

(A) During the process of transcription,$DNA$-dependent $RNA$ polymerase catalyzes the polymerization of ribonucleotides in the $5' \rightarrow 3'$ direction. This enzyme reads the $DNA$ template in the $3' \rightarrow 5'$ direction. The specific $DNA$ strand that acts as a template for $RNA$ synthesis is known as the template strand. The other strand,which has the same polarity as the $RNA$ (except $T$ is replaced by $U$),is called the coding strand.

The $DNA$ strand on which $DNA$-dependent $RNA$ polymerase catalyzes transcription is called:
