NEET 2023 Phase 1 · BiologyPrevious Year Question
What is the role of RNA polymerase III in the process of transcription in Eukaryotes?
Answer: (B) Transcription of tRNA, 5srRNA and snRNA. Answer: (B) Transcription of tRNA, 5srRNA and snRNA.
- A.Transcription of rRNAs (28S, 18S and 5.8S)
- B.Transcription of tRNA, 5srRNA and snRNA✓
- C.Transcription of precursor of mRNA
- D.Transcription of only snRNAs
Correct Answer
(B) Transcription of tRNA, 5srRNA and snRNA
Solution & Explanation
Answer: (B) Transcription of tRNA, 5srRNA and snRNA. In eukaryotes there is a division of labour among RNA polymerases: RNA pol I makes rRNAs (28S, 18S, 5.8S), RNA pol II makes the mRNA precursor (hnRNA), and RNA pol III makes tRNA, 5S rRNA and snRNAs. NCERT Ch 5, p.95, lines 003-005: "whereas the RNA polymerase III is responsible for transcription of tRNA, 5srRNA, and snRNAs (small nuclear RNAs)."
