Write out the sequence of the alpha chain of the channel pro

Write out the sequence of the alpha chain of the channel protein. Use the genetic code to determine ALL the different possible ribonucleotide sequences that MAY code for each protein. Alpha chain amino acid sequence: Alpha chain ribonucleotide sequence:

Solution

This peptide with 6 aminoacids met-pro-arg-ser-val-leu when you back translate to the mRNA codons is what is required to be answered for this question. To start with each aminoacid is represented with a three letter codons in a messenger and the codons for the
