Exercise In this exercise we will practice transcribing and translating sample DNA. Using your sample DNA, unzipped and second strand removed, you will first create an RNA strand (transcription). DNA is read in the 5' → 3' direction, so when you create RNA, a 3'end pairs with the 5' end of DNA. From your RNA strand, you will need to create codons; remember that a codon is a group of 3 bases that codes for a specific amino acid. Your codons are read in the 5' → 3' direction (hint: it might be right to left!). You will then need to convert your codons into amino acids in the 5' → 3' direction (translation).

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.
