2
DNA is Stuck!
DNA has the instructions to make all the proteins a living thing needs. Unfortunately, proteins can ONLY be made in ribosomes. DNA is stuck all the way in the nucleus!
3
How Does DNA get its instructions for making proteins?
By giving its message to RNA! RNA is different than DNA and can leave the nucleus.

6
So how do we make this RNA stuff?
The process is called TRANSCRIPTION
A DNA template is used to make a COMPLIMENTARY strand of RNA (think the matching bases)
7
Transcription Process
DNA unwinds
A protein gets a signal to find the right starting point (RNA polymerase).
RNA monomers come in and match to the complimentary DNA base.
8
Transcription Process
RNA pieces (monomers) get glued together
The DNA code tells the process to stop
DNA zips back together
