Consider the following DNA sequence:
-T
--
--
If RNA primase used this section of DNA to make a primer, what would be the
correct sequence of base pairs (from top to bottom)?
T-A-C-C-G-T-T
OT-U-C-C-G-U-U
OA-T-G-G-C-A-A
U-A-C-C-G-U-U
If I take random biological sequences from a data bank, I see even more sequence similarity. Why ?
I have built an urn model for a DNA sequence. I have taken the letters from a sequence 1946 nucleotides long. The urn contains 259 Adenines, 699 Cytosines, 401 Thymines and 587 Guanines
How many start codons will I find on average in the entire sequence when I draw all of the bases from the urn without replacement?
Please I'm not too sure how to tackle this.
