Question:
tRNA is synthesized by:
tRNA is synthesized by:
Show Hint
Focus on the specific RNA polymerases and their roles in eukaryotic transcription.
Updated On: Feb 11, 2026
- RNA polymerase I
- RNA polymerase II
- Ribosomes
- RNA polymerase III
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
In eukaryotes, tRNA molecules are synthesized by RNA polymerase III, which is specialized for transcribing small RNA molecules, including 5S rRNA and tRNAs. RNA polymerase I transcribes most rRNA (except 5S rRNA), and RNA polymerase II synthesizes mRNA and some snRNAs. Ribosomes, on the other hand, are involved in translation and not RNA synthesis.
