Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Every organism present in nature contains genetic material. There are two types of genetic material. These are DNA and RNA. The DNA stands for “Deoxyribonucleic acid” and RNA represents “Ribonucleic acid”. tRNA is a type of RNA.

Questions How many nucleotides would be needed to code for a protein that has 100 amino acids? Using the Genetic Code in Table 6.3, write all of the possible codons that signal the start and end of a gene. Start: End: An amino acid sequence of a protein molecule includes methionine, lysine, serine and glycine. Show each different codon that could result in each of these amino acids. You will have more than one codon for all of them except methionine. Amino Acids All Possible Codons Methionine Lysine Serine (Look carefully. There are six possibilities) Glycine Question 3 illustrates the redundant nature of the genetic code.

Justify your answer. Introns are coding regions of the DNA that becomes part of the mature mRNA after splicing. A eukaryotic gene can be expressed without undergoing transcription. Eukaryotic translation occur in the cytoplasm. The newly synthesized DNA strand during replication was made from the 5’ to 3’ direction. The enzyme helicase unzips a double-stranded DNA by breaking the ionic bond between base pairs.arrow_forward
