    RNA polymerase

    6993

    RNA polymerase (purple) is a complex enzyme at the heart of transcription. During this process, the enzyme unwinds the DNA double helix and uses one strand (darker orange) as a template to create the single-stranded messenger RNA (green), later used by ribosomes for protein synthesis.

    From the RNA polymerase II elongation complex of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (PDB entry 1I6H) as seen in PDB-101's What is a Protein? video.
    Public NoteA large purple orb with orange and green lines crossing it’s middle.
