As you should recall, DNA, when not being actively transcribed, has a double helical structure. This portion of the DNA has had the two strands separated in preparation of transcribing for a needed protein. The following is one of the two complimentary strands of DNA:

Q: Based on written convention, i.e. the 3'-5' orientation, is this the coding strand or the template strand? ______________________________
Q: Assuming this strand extends from base #1 to #61 (going left to right), interpret the correctly transcribed mRNA and translated polypeptide for bases 24 - 47:
mRNA: ___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-___-
polypeptide chain: ________--________--________--________--________--________--________--________
The DNA has two strands one is the Template strand and other is the coding strand.
Based on the above strand given
3' - AACCAGTGGTATGGTGCGATGATCGATTCGAGGCTAAAATACGGATTCGTACGTAGGCACT - 5'
This is the template strand.
The coding strand for the above is:-
3' - AACCAGTGGTATGGTGCGATGATCGATTCGAGGCTAAAATACGGATTCGTACGTAGGCACT - 5' -TEMPLATE STRAND
5' - TTGGTCACCATACCACGCTACTAGCTAAGCTCCGATTTTATGCCTAAGCATGCATCCGTGA -3' -CODING STRAND
