Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 18PS
Given the following
- (a) Determine the sequence of the complementary strand of DNA. Report this sequence by writing it from its 5' end to its 3' end.
- (b) Write the sequence (5'-3') for the strand of mRNA that would be complementary to the original strand of DNA.
- (c) Assuming that this sequence is part of the coding sequence for a protein and that it is properly lined up so that the first codon of this sequence begins with the 5' nucleotide of the mRNA, write the sequences for the three anti- codons that would be complementary to this strand of mRNA.
- (d) What sequence of amino acids is selected by this mRNA? (The complete genetic code is listed in several sites on the Internet.)
