Question
3. Shown below is a double-stranded bacterial (E. coli) DNA sequence coding for a hypothetical protein.
Both strands are shown; the top strand reads 5' to 3' left to right, while the bottom strand reads 5' to 3'
right to left. The nucleotides are numbered 1 to 100. NOTE: For this problem, transcription begins with
and includes the red and underlined C/G (top strand/bottom strand) base pair and RNA polymerase
proceeds from left to right along the DNA.
