Transcribe
Definition:
(v. t.) To write over again, or in the same words; to copy; as, to transcribe Livy or Tacitus; to transcribe a letter.
Example Sentences:
(1) RNA transcribed in vitro from the early region of bacteriophage T3 or T7 was translated by cytoplasmic ribosomes which synthesized protein in cell-free systems prepared from mammalian cells and wheat germ.
(2) The gene, which is located at chromosome XIII, is transcribed as a mRNA of about 2.7 kilobases, and the amount of message has been found to increase 3- to 4-fold during the culture.
(3) RNA preparations were reverse-transcribed, amplified by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and separated by electrophoresis.

Late after infection, the E3 promoter appears to be shut off and the major late promoter is used to make mainly mRNAs d and e. The late L4 mRNA 3' end site is not used early even though early E3 pre-mRNAs transcribe through the L4 RNA 3' end site.
(5) Thus, hyp does not appear to affect metastable variation but does affect the level of transcription of the pilA gene in the ON (transcribed) mode.
