A segment of DNA has the followimg sequence of bases.. 5'-ATGCAATGATATTGAAGCTTA-3' a) What sequence of bases would appear in mRNA transcribed from this segment? b) Assume the first base in this mRNA is the beginning of a codon. What order of amino acid would be translated into a polypeptide synthesized along this segment? c) Give anticodons for each tRNA associated with the translation in part (b)
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
