Using the following piece of DNA (a) Draw the complimentary (as the bottom strand) (b) Assuming RNA polymerase reads the top strand, Label the template & coding strands. (c) draw the transcribed mRNA. (d) Write the amino acid sequence (e) Give the anti-codon of the 1^st two tRNAS (f) From the previous question, replacing the C at the 7th position (underlined) with a G would result in what kind of mutation? 5'-TCATGTC_TT CGTTATCCTAGTCATC-3'
