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

- Given the following tRNA anticodon sequence, derive the mRNA and the DNA template strand. Also, write out the amino acid sequence of the protein encoded by this message. tRNA: UAC UCU CGA GGC mRNA: protein: How many hydrogen bonds would be present in the DNA segment?arrow_forwardBelow is a sequence of 540 bases from a genome. What information would you use to find the beginnings and ends of open reading frames? How many open reading frames can you find in this sequence? Which open reading frame is likely to represent a protein- coding sequence, and why? Which are probably not functioning protein-coding sequences, and why? Note: for simplicitys sake, analyze only this one strand of the DNA double helix, reading from left to right, so you will only be analyzing three of the six reading frames shown in Figure 19.4.arrow_forwardBelow is a double stranded DNA that contains an ORF. Identify the ORF and in the spaces below, first provide the mRNA sequence that would result (in the 5' to 3' direction). Then give the protein sequence this mRNA would encode (in the N to C direction using the 3-letter abreviations and a single space in between). 5'-CTGCGC TAGGCGCAGTAGGGCATCCCACGACA-3' 3'-GACGCGATCCGCGTCATCCCG TAGGG TGC TGT-5' Codon Table: บบบ UUC JUA UUG CUU CUC CUA CUG Phe GUU GUC GUA GUG Leu Leu AUU AUC lle AUA AUG Met Val mRNA sequence: UCU UCC UCA UCG protein sequence: CCU CCC CCA CCG ACU ACC ACA ACG GCU GCC GCA GCG Ser Pro Thr Ala UAU UAC UAA UAG CAU CAC CAA CAG Tyr Stop GAU GAC His Gin AAU Asn AAC AAAG} LUS Asp GAA GAG} Glu UGU Cys UGC UGA Stop UGG Trp CGU CGC CGA CGG AGU AGC Arg Ser AGG} Arg GGU GGC GGA GGG (DO NOT include the 5' and 3' numbers or the N and C.

For each DNA segment 3'-ACCTGCCTACCCG-5' the sequence of the mRNA molecule synthesized is 5'-TGGACGGATGGGC-3' 2. In the template strand TACCGAGGTATGTAC, the coding strand is 5'-ATGGCTCCATACATG-3'. 3. In the template strand TACCGAGGTATGTAC, the coding strand is 5'-AUGGCUCCAUACAUG-3'. 4. The template strand is the strand of DNA used for RNA synthesis. 5. Transcription forms a messenger RNA molecule with a sequence that is identical to the DNA template from which it is prepared.arrow_forward
