The following is the sequence of the template strand of a gene. What is the mRNA sequence? Please clearly label the direction of the mRNA. What is the sequence of the peptide this gene encodes? A codon table is provided. 5?-- TTACCCATCGGTCAGTAGTCTTTCAACCAAGCCATGGTGGCGG --3?

Explanation / Answer

Template strand of a gene is

5’-- TTACCCATCGGTCAGTAGTCTTTCAACCAAGCCATGGTGGCGG --3’

The mRNA sequence is

3'--AAUGGGUAGCCAGUCAUCAGAAAGUUGGUUCGGUACCACCGCC--5'

Codons are

3'--AAU GGG UAG CCA GUC AUC AGA AAG UUG GUU CGG UAC CAC CGC C--5'

5'---CCG CCA CCA UGG UUU GGU UGA AAG ACU ACU GAC CGA UGG GUA A ---3'

This is the sequence of peptide that will be coded.
