A medical transcriptionist works with many different medical specialties. Each specialty is unique‚ yet each needs assistance from health care workers in other specialties to do their jobs. Eight medical specialties that will be reviewed are: radiology‚ dermatology‚ cardiology‚ obstetrics and gynecology‚ psychiatry‚ neurology‚ ophthalmology‚ and orthopedics. The eighth specialty‚ orthopedics‚ will be reviewed in the most detail. RADIOLOGY The main purpose of one field of medicine is to assist

DNA TRANSCRIPTION OVERVIEW Changes DNA to mRNA Happens in nucleus mRNA is an RNA copy of the DNA for the protein The mRNA will carry the message to the ribosomes to be translated into a protein STEPS OF TRANSCRIPTION IN PROKARYOTES In order for transcription to take place the strand must be unzipped but only the area where the gene is on the chromosome RNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for reading and unzipping the strand Two strands on DNA- one is read and one is not Sense
Free DNA RNA Gene
DNA Transcription The process of transcription is where a copy of a gene is made within DNA to use as RNA. It is located in the nucleus of eukaryotes and in the nucleoid of prokaryotes. DNA stores information encoded in a genetic code. The code consists of four letters and they are T (thymine)‚ G (guanine)‚ A (Adenine)‚ and C (cytosine). One gene codes for on protein. RNA is a molecule that copies information that is coded in another genetic code. This code also consists of the same four
Free DNA RNA Gene
gene codes for synthesis of a particular polypeptide chain. The second strand is the mRNA base sequence (template strand used for copying) codon of the transcribed mRNA. The process for going from the upper stand to the second strand is called Transcription and involves an enzyme called polymerase. The polymerase attaches to the promoter region (start codon) and reads the nucleotide base sequence until it gets to a termination signal (stop codon) and then it jumps off because it has the whole recipe

Transcription and Translation The function of DNA in the living world is at once strangely complex and surprisingly simple. The genetic code carried in molecules of DNA is responsible for a spectacular variety of life forms. Plant life in the Amazon‚ creatures on the ocean floor‚ and animals in the Serengeti have all arisen‚ and survive and thrive in their respective environments‚ because of the function of DNA. Inside every living cell‚ DNA directs vital activities‚ such as growth‚ division‚ movement

BOT 2523 – Medical Transcription June 6‚ 2014 What is the Future of Medical Transcription? We never know what the future may hold; that can be a very unsettling fact no matter what topic is being discussed. Not knowing what the future holds for one’s chosen profession is even more unsettling. Although some healthcare professionals believe that medical transcriptionists will soon be obsolete‚ the outlook for the medical transcription industry is not altogether bleak. Technology is constantly
