Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

The process by which a gene's sequence is converted into a mature gene product or products (proteins or RNA). This includes the production of an RNA transcript as well as any processing to produce a mature RNA product or an mRNA (for protein-coding genes) and the translation of that mRNA into protein. Some protein processing events may be included when they are required to form an active form of a product from an inactive precursor form. The chemical reactions and pathways involving macromolecules, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass, as carried out by individual cells. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a macromolecule, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass. Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleic acids. The mechanisms involved in viral gene transcription, especially referring to those with temporal properties unique to viral transcription. The cellular synthesis of DNA on a template of RNA. The cellular synthesis of RNA on a template of DNA. The cellular synthesis of either RNA on a template of DNA or DNA on a template of RNA. Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides and nucleic acids. Any cellular process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of transcription. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a macromolecule, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass, carried out by individual cells. Any cellular process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of transcription. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of substances, carried out by individual cells. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the synthesis of either RNA on a template of DNA or DNA on a template of RNA. The chemical reactions and pathways involving macromolecules, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass.
