The 5'-->3' or "top" strand This step of transcription occurs after initiation and before termination. It involves the sequential addition of ribonucleotide building blocks to the 3'-OH of the elongating RNA strand. The building blocks of RNA upstream The end of the RNA molecule that is synthesized and exposed first. can cause termination of transcription by destabilizing the RNA/DNA heteroduplex. encodes for the following mRNA: 5'CGUUACGAC...3' The multi-subunit enzyme whose sigma subunit recognizes promoter sequences and whose core enzyme builds RNA using the template DNA strand as code. 5'TTGACA.....TATTAT....3' -35.............-10..........
