Chapter 24.3, Problem 2RC

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The sequence of RNA is complementary to the DNA sequence AUG should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Proteins: Proteins are condensation polymers formed from amino acids. Proteins provide structural support, help organisms move, store and transport chemicals from one area to another.

(RNA):

Uracil (U) base pairs with Adenine (A) and guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C). so the complementary base pair sequence to ATC would be To ATC would be UAG which codes for a stop codon specially called (Amber)

DNA pairing A pairs with T and G pairs With G pairs with C . Building a complementary DNA sequence to your strand first, then whenever you have T’s replace them with U’s.
