RNA polymerase II (RNAP II)\u00a0 is an enzyme that has the capacity to unwind the DNA double helix and synthesize RNA. This is crucial; before a cell can divide, the\u00a0 information must be transcribed on strands of RNA. RNAP II combines with the Mediator complex, which controls the transcription process, and can successfully interpret the genetic code.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
