Question

Suppose that section x, y, and z of the following hypothetical DNA strand are the exon (coding sequence) of one gene: 
                              3’ CGC GGA TAT CTC GAG AAT TGT CTA 5’
                                    x                             y                    z

What is the structure of each of the following substances made under its 
direction? 
a. mRNA

b. The polypeptide that is made using the given genetic information (use the genetic code)

c. Suppose a mutation occurs, what is the resulting polypeptide sequence of  the new DNA strand? 
                     3’ CCC GAA TAT CTC GAG AAT TGT CTA 5’
                          x                             y                     z
