Figure 1: A gene is expressed through the processes of transcription and translation. 1  During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase (green) uses DNA as a template to produce a pre-mRNA transcript (pink).
1 Biology 101: An Overview of the Transcription Process When genetic information is moved from DNA to RNA, the DNA transcription process is taking place. 2  The purpose of the transcription is to generate proteins.
