transcription/translation help

1) Write the sequence of t sequence directly below) and the coding OF THE ELE strand that goes with the toflowing DNA template strand (wn the 2) Write the mRNA sequence that would result from transcription of the template strand. Cirele the start codon. 3) Translate the mRNA using the genetic code on acid sequence of the protein. the next page (Table 14.6 in your text). Write out the 4) Rewrite the DNA template sequence from first question, but remove the underlined base.

Explanation / Answer

1)Write the sequence of the coding strand that goes with the following DNA template strand (write the sequence directly below) and indicate which end is the 5’ and which is the 3’.

3’-TGCATTACGCCTAAATACGGGATTCCCGGAAAATTC-5’ (Template Strand)

5’-ACGTAATGCGGATTTATGCCCTAAGGGCCTTTTAAG-3’ (Coding Strand)

2) Write the mRNA sequence that would result from transcription of the template strand. Circle the start codon.

After Transcription both Sequences will get converted into mRNA strands.
