A certain template DNA strand has the following nucleotide sequence: 3’-TACTCGATGCTGTGCGAT-5’ a) What would be the nucleotide sequence of the complementary nontemplate DNA strand? What is this process called and where does this occur in the eukaryotic cell? b) Take the template strand through the process of transcription. What is the resulting strand called and where does this process occur in a eukaryotic cell. c) Take the template strand through the process of translation including the location in the cell.
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
A certain template DNA strand has the following
3’-TACTCGATGCTGTGCGAT-5’
- a) What would be the nucleotide sequence of the complementary nontemplate DNA strand? What is this process called and where does this occur in the eukaryotic cell?
- b) Take the template strand through the process of transcription. What is the resulting strand called and where does this process occur in a eukaryotic cell.
- c) Take the template strand through the process of translation including the location in the cell. You should finish with a polypeptide chain. You will need to use the Genetic code found in your notes/book
