DNA transcription, illustration C018 / 0900
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) transcription. Illustration of an RNA (ribonucelic acid) polymerase molecule (centre) synthesising an mRNA (messenger RNA) strand (bottom) from a DNA template (across centre). This is a key stage in protein synthesis and gene expression. The polymerase enzyme require several cofactors of bind and form the RNA complex before it can transcribe the DNA

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate process of DNA transcription, showcasing the essential steps involved in gene expression and protein synthesis. At its core, the image showcases an RNA polymerase molecule positioned at the center, diligently synthesizing a messenger RNA (mRNA) strand from a DNA template that stretches across the frame. The vibrant pink hues bring to life this crucial stage in molecular biology, where various cofactors are required for the polymerase enzyme to bind and form the complex necessary for transcribing DNA. The artwork beautifully illustrates how these biochemical interactions occur within our cells. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), often referred to as our genetic blueprint, holds vital information that is transcribed into mRNA molecules. This process allows genes to be expressed and proteins to be produced – fundamental components of life itself. Claudia Stocker's masterful depiction not only highlights the complexity of this biological phenomenon but also serves as a reminder of humanity's continuous exploration into understanding our genetic makeup. It exemplifies how art can merge with science seamlessly, creating visually stunning representations that educate and inspire both scientists and enthusiasts alike.
