Textbook Question
Chapter 14.1, Problem 3CC
DRAW IT The template strand of a gene contains the sequence 3’-TTCAGTCGT-5’. Suppose that the nontemplate sequence could be transcribed instead of the template sequence. Draw the nontemplate sequence in 3’ to 5’ order. Then draw the mRNA sequence and translate it using Figure 14.6Q. (Be sure to pay attention to the 5’ and 3’ ends, remembering that the mRNA is antiparallel to the DNA strand.) Predict how well the protein synthesized from the nontemplate strand would function, if at all

Part A: Write the amino acid sequence for this portion of the coding sequence.
Part B: Write the double-stranded DNA sequence that corresponds to the mRNA above. Label 5’ and 3’ ends. Would transcription have occurred using the top or bottom strand as the template?
The DNA sequence below is transcribed from left to right (the partner/coding strand is shown). Using this sequence, write the sequence of the polypeptide that results from
this gene. Be sure to appropriately label the ends of the molecule.
