The mRNA generated below was produced in the <em><u>nucleus </u></em>of the cell.
Messenger RNA or mRNA is a type of RNA that is an essential component of protein synthesis or gene expression. It is synthesized using the template that is the nucleotide sequence of DNA.
The synthesis of the mRNA s called transcription
The nucleus is the location of the production of mRNA in eukaryotic cells from linear DNA strands.
It requires nucleotide triphosphates as substrates
catalyzed by the enzyme RNA polymerase II.
Thus, the process of making mRNA from DNA is called transcription, and it occurs in the nucleus.
