Be sure to describe each of the three components of a nucleotide for both DNA and RNA along with the types of bonds formed between the components. In addition, explain: how the nucleotides link together to form each molecule, why the prime ends are labeled 5’ and 3’, what antiparallel is, what phospodiester linkages are and what complementary base pairing is.arrow_forwardInstructions: Express your own gene! (1) Make up a DNA sequence of at least 18nucleotides and then (2) show the mRNA sequence that will be made via transcription,(3) show the tRNAs that will base pair and deliver the amino acids, and (4) the aminoacid sequence of the resulting protein. You can use the single letter abbreviations forDNA and RNA nucleotides and the three-letter abbreviations for the amino acids.arrow_forward
