The Template Strand of a Segment of Double-Stranded DNA Contains

question 24

Essay

The template strand of a segment of double-stranded DNA contains the sequence:
(5')-CTT TGA TAA GGA TAG CCC TTC-(3')
(a)What is the base sequence of the mRNA that can be transcribed from this strand?
(b)What amino acid sequence could be coded by the mRNA base sequence in (a),using only the first reading frame starting at the 5' end?
(c)Suppose the other (complementary)strand is used as a template for transcription.What is the amino acid sequence of the resulting peptide,again starting from the 5' end and using only the first reading frame?
