Question

Draw a typical bacterial mRNA and the gene from which it was transcribed. Identify the 5′ and 3′ ends of the RNA and DNA molecules, as well as the following regions or sequences:

Q. Protein-coding sequence

Expert Solution
Step 1

The transcription is the process in which the mRNA copied information from DNA for protein synthesis. The mRNA contains the genetic information in the form of genetic code used to synthesize protein, the process called translation. In mRNA, genetic code is present in the form of triplet codons which codes for the specific amino acid. There are 20 amino acids present which are the monomers of the protein. Also, there are a total of 61 codons that code for the 20 amino acids that suggest there must be more than one codon for the single amino acid.
