Question
Using the example above, transcribe the following DNA strand into mRNA and translate that strand into a polypeptide chain, identifying the codons, anticodons, and amino acid sequence.

Transcribed Image Text:Instructions: Generate the mRNA, codon, anticodon and amino acid sequence. Use 3
letter symbols for the amino acids.
Remember:
DNA to mRNA: G-C; A-T
Codon: starts with start codon (AUG), ends with stop codon (UAA.UAG,UGA)
Codon to anticodon: G-C; A-U
Codon to amino acid: use genetic code (use 3 letter symbols)
Example:
DNA:
mRNA:
Codons:
GTACGCGTATACCGACATTC
CAUGCGCAUAUGGCUGUAAG
AUG-CGC-AUA-UGG-CUG-UAA
Anticodons: UAC-GCG-UAU-ACC-GAC-AUU
Amino Acids: METHIONINE-ARGININE-ISOLEUCINE-TRYPTOPHAN-LEUCINE
Using the example above, transcribe the following DNA strand into mRNA and translate that
strand into a polypeptide chain, identifying the codons, anticodons, and amino acid
sequence.
