NEET (UG) 2023 — Question 104

What is the role of RNA polymerase III in the process of transcription in Eukaryotes?

  1. Option A:

    Transcription of tRNA, 5 srRNA and snRNA

    Correct
  2. Option B:

    Transcription of precursor of mRNA

  3. Option C:

    Transcription of only snRNAs

  4. Option D:

    Transcription of rRNAs (28S, 18S and 5.8 S)5.8 \mathrm{~S})

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

In eukaryotes there are three major types of RNA polymerases.

RNA polymerase I transcribes : 5.8S, 18S, 28S rRNAs

RNA polymerase II transcribes : hnRNAs (precurssor of mRNA)

RNA polymerase III transcribes : tRNAs, ScRNA, 5S rRNA and snRNA
