2. A (1 pt) Using the Genetic Code table, determine the peptide that is encoded by the part of the mRNA molecule shown. Use the three-letter designation for amino acids. Start with the first start codon the ribosome would translate, and end at a stop codon 5'-CUGCGAUGAUUAGCCUAAUGGUUGAGAGUUGAUAGGCG-3 B. (0.25 pt) If this is a eukaryotic mRNA, would the TATA box present in the full-length transcript?
Question 9: The genetic code is read in groups of three nucleotides, called codons, in mRNA that specifies for a particular amino acid. tRNA molecules act as the amino acid carriers that by correctly pairing with the codon on mRNA can deliver the correct amino acid to the ribosome during translation. At the tip of each tRNA molecule is a group of three nucleotides called an anticodon and at the other end is where the corresponding amino acid is attached...
The following is a fragment of double-stranded DNA. It encodes a hypothetical 6 amino acid protein and includes the start (initiator) codon, a small amount of 5' UTR, and a small amount of 3' UTR. TTGGCAATGTGATCCCTTGTGCGGTACCACT AACCGTTACACTAGGGAACACGCCATGGTGA The bottom strand is the template, and the RNA polymerase moves along the bottom (template) strand from RIGHT TO LEFT. a) Determine the orientation of the DNA template.

3. The mRNA base sequence below codes for part of a protein. Using the genetic code table in your text (p. 731 or the inside back cover), determine the amino acid sequence encoded by this piece of mRNA. (13 pts) mRNA: CAU GAA CU ACCUA GUGCU GUUGAA AU CAC CGCGCUCCU A protein:
What is a function of an AUG codon other than to start a new protein-coding sequence? Why is the nearly universal genetic code an indication that all of life had a single origin? How long would the mRNA need to be if it coded for a 150-amino-acid-long protein? Which codon position is most often responsible for the redundancy of the genetic code

C++: Translating mRNA sequence help Homework Description Codon 1 You are working in a bioinformatics lab studying messenger RNA (mRNA) sequences. mRNA is a sequence of the nucleotide bases (Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine, and Uracil) that conveys information stored in DNA to Ribosomes for translation into proteins. The bases in the sequences are denoted by the first letters of the nucleotide bases (e.g. A, C, G, and U). A sequence of mRNA is made up of hundres to thousands of nucleotide...
