7. How many different MRNAS could specify the amino acid sequence met-phe-ser-pro? 8. A gene contains 3 exons and 2 introns. The exons have the following number of base pairs: exon 1 100 bp, exon2 300 bp, exon 3 200 bp. The introns have the following number of base pairs: intron 1 500 bp, intron 2 300 bp. Draw this gene. Represent the exons as boxes and the introns as lines. Assume that the gene as a 5' UTR that is 100 bp in length. Assume it has a 3' UTR that is 200 bp in length.
