Question

Break the following DNA sequence into triplets. (Draw a line to separate triplets) CCG|ATA|CGC|GGT|ATC|CCA|GGG|CTA|ATT|CAA If the above code showed the bases on one strand of DNA, what would the complementary strand read? What would the code in problem #2 be transcribed into (What would the mRNA sequence be?) How many codons are there in the above problem? What is the three-letter sequence on a tRNA molecule called? How many different amino acids are there that make up all of the proteins in our body? How many different codons are there?

Answer 1

2. Break the following DNA sequence into triplets. (Draw a line to separate triplets) CCG ATAC G CG G TATCC CAG G G C TAATTİAA 3. If the above code showed the bases on one strand of DNA, what would the complementary strand read? GGC TAT GCG CCA TAG GGT CCC GAT TAA GTT Complementary strand 4, what would the code in problem #2 be transcribed into what would the mRNA sequence be?) mRNA--CCG AUA CGC GGU AUC CCA GGG CUA AUU CAA The DNA nucleotides otherwise called "bases" carry the message encoding for the synthesis of a protein. There are four such bases, namely, adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C), which are the building blocks of DNA's double helical structure. Adenine and thymine are pyrimidines, guanine and cytosine are purines. RNA contains uracil (U) in place of thymine Among these base pairs, adenine binds with thymine and guanine binds with cytosine, this is called as complementary pairing
