Summary Introduction

To determine: The sequences of the mature RNA.

Concept introduction: The sequence of the three mRNA nucleotides that codes for the amino acids during the translation process is called codon. Three nucleotides constitute a codon that codes for the single amino acid. The codon where the translation process initiates is the start codon, which is usually AUG that codes for methionine. The stop codon terminates the translation process. The stop codons are UAA, UGA, and UAG.

Given: The sequence of the sense strand of a mammalian gene is as follows:

TATAATACGCGCAATACAATCTACAGCTTCGCGTAAATCGTAGGTAAGTTGTAATAAATATAAGTGAGTATGATACAGGCTTTGGACCGATAGATGCGACCCTGGAGGTAAGTATAGATTAATTAAGCACAGGCATGCAGGGATATCCTCCAAAAAGGTAAGTAACCTTACGGTCAATTAATTCAGGCAGTAGATGAATAAACGATATCGATCGGTTAGGTAAGTCTGAT

Assume that: The transcription initiates at a G, which is approximately 25bp downstream of the TATAATA sequence, in which each 5′ splice site has the sequence AG/GUAAGU, and that each 3′ splice site has the sequence CAG/G, where / marks the location of the splice.
