A section of DNA template strand reads 3'-TAC-GAA-CCT-5'. You need to transcribe it to mRNA, then translate it to amino acids using the genetic code.
Formula Sheet
Transcription: T→A, A→U, G→C, C→GCodon = 3 mRNA basesAUG = start, UAA/UAG/UGA = stopTranscribe the DNA template 3'-TAC-GAA-CCT-5' to mRNA. What is the mRNA sequence?
The codon AUG codes for the amino acid Methionine AND signals:
A point mutation changes codon GUU to GUC. Both code for Valine. This mutation is called:
How many amino acids would be encoded by a mRNA with 900 nucleotides (excluding start/stop codons)?
