Using the Genetic Code to Predict an Amino Acid Sequence Consider the following

Question

Using the Genetic Code to Predict an Amino Acid Sequence Consider the following template strand of DNA: Through transcription, what mRNA sequence would be synthesized from this template strand of DNA? For full credit, please be sure to label both the 5' and 3' ends of the mRNA. Please write your answer in the space below When this mRNA is then translated, what peptide would be produced? Please use the genetic code provided to deduce the amino acid sequence for this peptide. For full credit, please be sure to label both the N-terminus and the C-terminus of the peptide. Please write your answer in the space below.

Explanation / Answer

The answer is

DNA : 3'-TCTACCTGATAACTTCG-5'

mRNA : 5'-AGAUGGACUAUUGAAGC-3'

Protein : N' arg-try-thr-iso-leu C'
