During transcription, what does messenger RNA do?

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is encoded through the DNA in the nucleus.

During transcription, DNA helicase "unzips" DNA's double helix so that the RNA polymerase enzyme can travel along the DNA and encode the mRNA. The mRNA will leave the nucleus, after having its introns spliced, and travel to ribosomes so that translation may occur.
