As you now know, a gene is a sequence of nucleotides in a DNA molecule that directs the formation of a protein. In the activity below,
you will find the gene that codes for the protein known as beef Insulin, which is a protein that breaks down sugar in a cow's blood.
Begin by transcribing the gene into mRNA. Then use the mRNA sequence and the codon table to translate the gene into a protein.
Use the three letter abbreviations contained in the table to fill in the beef insulin molecule.
