Question

Given the following mRNA codons and amino acids, construct a polypeptide from this DNA strand.

 

            DNA        AAT  GGT  CCA  CCG  CTG                        

mRNA  Amino Acids

                                                                                                            UUA= leucine

                                                                                                            GAC= asparginine

                                                                                                            GGU= glycine

                                                                                                            GGC= glycine

                                                                                                            CCA= proline
