You are attempting to synthesize rRNA in a test tube using DNA isolated from mouse cells. In addition to the template DNA, ribon
ucleotides, and the necessary transcription factors, you should also add what enzyme to the test tube?a.poly-A polymeraseb.RNA polymerase IIIc.RNA polymerase Id.RNA polymerase II
The main enzyme responsible for RNA synthesis is RNA polymerase, which <em>catalyzes the polymerization of 5'-triphosphate ribonucleosides (NTP) </em>directed by a DNA mold.
Eukaryotic cells contain <u>three types of nuclear RNA polymerases</u> that transcribe different types of genes. Protein-encoding genes are transcribed by RNA polymerase II to give mRNA.
