Consider a template strand of DNA with the following sequence: 3 '–CAA TGT ATT TTT GCT–5 '. (a) What is the informational strand of DNA that corresponds to this template? (b) What mRNA is prepared from this template? (c) What polypeptide is prepared from the mRNA?
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.
Consider a template strand of DNA with the following
sequence: 3 '–CAA TGT ATT TTT GCT–5 '. (a) What is the
informational strand of DNA that corresponds to this
template? (b) What mRNA is prepared from this template?
(c) What polypeptide is prepared from the mRNA?
