Transcription is carried out by a DNA-dependent RNA polymerase that copies the sequence of a DNA strand into RNA. To begin transcribing a gene, the RNA polymerase binds to a sequence of DNA called a promoter and separates the DNA strands.
The primary mechanism of significant change in DNA is mutation. That DNA is subject to mutation is a fact and it has been directly observed. In addition, many of the mechanisms of mutation are understood including mutations that can lead to drastic changes in an organism.This means we understand some of the mechanisms by which changes in an organism can be affected.hese facts, that 1) DNA determines the nature of an organism and that 2) there are mechanisms through which DNA can be modified, are the basis of evolution. It is through these facts that evolution happens.
