A certain template DNA strand has the following nucleotide sequence:
3’-TACTCGATGCTGTGCGAT-5’
a) What would be the nucleotide sequence of the complementary nontemplate DNA strand? What is this process called and where does this occur in the eukaryotic cell?
b) Take the template strand through the process of transcription. What is the resulting strand called and where does this process occur in a eukaryotic cell.
c) Take the template strand through the process of translation including the location in the cell. You should finish with a polypeptide chain. You will need to use the Genetic code found in your notes/book
The following sequence represents a few codons present in one strand of DNA.Using this strand of DNA as a template strand for transcription, you are required to synthesize a new RNA strand. A) Show the codons that will be present on the RNA strand. B) Using the universal genetic code, provide the amino acids on the protein that will be translated from the RNA strand.
