Summary

RNA is transcribed from only one of the two DNA strands, called the "sense" strand (the other being called the "anti-sense" strand). If DNA is isolated during transcription, there may be "melted out" loops consisting on one side of a length of RNA (shown in red) base-paired to its complementary DNA sequence on the "sense" strand, and on the other side of the now-unpaired "anti-sense" strand.
