The use of a gene sequence to make a copy of RNA: transcription occurs in three stages called initiation, elongation, and termination.
It is the process of transcribing or making a copy of genetic information stored in a DNA strand into a complementary strand of RNA (messenger RNA or mRNA) with the aid of RNA polymerases.
