Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The amino acid sequence formed from the following mRNA sequence and anticodon also should be determined:
5' CCA CCG GCA AAC GAA GCA 3'
Concept Introduction:
Genetic information is included in DNA and most of them code for a particular protein. Consecutive three base pairs represent a single amino acid. Genetic information coded in DNA, first transcribed in to mRNA sequence and using that mRNA molecule translate into an amino acid sequence
(b)
Interpretation:
The amino acid sequence formed from the following mRNA sequence and anticodon also should be determined:
5' GCA CCA CUA AGA GAC 3'
Concept Introduction:
Genetic information is included in DNA and most of them code for a particular protein. Consecutive three base pairs represent a single amino acid. Genetic information coded in DNA, first transcribed in to mRNA sequence and using that mRNA molecule translate into an amino acid sequence
