Question 1 For the following doublestranded DNA sequence CAT
Question 1:
For the following double-stranded DNA sequence,
-CATTGACCGTAA-
-GTAACTGGCATT-
Answer the following questions:
a) Assume that the top strand is the
Solution
Question 1:
a) compliment of DNA = -GTAACTGGCATT-
b) mRNA = -GUAACUGGCAUU-
c) divide the mRNA sequence into parts of 3 neucleuotides
mRNA = -GUA ACU GGC AUU-
from the code given at the end we get the followin peptide sequence
peptide sequence = Valine - Threonine - Glycine - Isoleucine
d)
compliment of DNA = -CTAACTGGCATT-
mRNA = -CUAACUGGCAUU-
Question 2:
a) compliment of DNA = -GGGAATCTACCT-
b) mRNA = -GGGAAUCUACCU-
c) divide the mRNA sequence into parts of 3 neucleuotides
mRNA = -GGG AAU CUA CCU-
from the code given at the end we get the followin peptide sequence
peptide sequence = Glycine - Asparagine - Leucine - Proline
d)
compliment of DNA = -GAGAATCTACCT-
mRNA = -GAGAAUCUACCU-
NOTE :
Genetic Codes:
GUA - Valine
ACU - Threonine
GGC / GGG - Glycine
AUU - Isoleucine
AAU - Asparagine
CUA - Leucine
CCU - Proline
