DNA is the genetic material in most living organisms. It is the information hub of the cell that contains instructions for the synthesis of proteins. The central dogma of molecular biology is that DNA undergoes replication to create copies of itself, undergoes transcription to create expressible mRNA and this mRNA undergoes translation so that protein can be formed from the information carried in mRNA.The promoter is the region where the RNA polymerase binds to the DNA to start the transcription process. The transcription begins 10 bases from the promoter. RNA is a single stranded molecule that contains bases – adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil. The transcription starts and the first 7 RNA bases will be GACAUGA. So, the correct answer is (F) GACAUGA.
