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:

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.
