Now what about the process of termination? So just like there is a sequence of nucleotides that initiates the process of transcription there is also a sequence of nucleotides of DNA nucleotides found on the double stranded DNA that also signal the process of termination. So the process by which our transcription basically stops and the sequence of DNA of DNA nucleotides is known as the termination sequence. Now when the RNA polymerase basically reaches this termination sequence certain types of specialized proteins may assist in the process of termination. For example in prokaryotic organisms a special type of protein known as the Rofactor binds to our RNA and helps the RNA to dissociate from our DNA molecule and that basically terminates the process of transcription. So once again transcription transcription is the process by which we basically transfer the genetic information from DNA to RNA.
