Practice Problem 25.10
The sense strand of a segment of DNA has the following sequence of bases:
(a) What mRNA sequence would result from this segment?
(b) Assume that the first base in this mRNA is the beginning of a codon. What order of amino acids would be translated into a polypeptide synthesized along this segment?
(c) Give anticodons for each tRNA associated with the translation in part (b).

- The -chain of hemoglobin is a protein that contains 146 amino acids residues. What minimum number of nucleotides must be present in a strand of mRNA that is coded for this protein?arrow_forwardWhich statement best explains the chemical differencesbetween DNA and RNA? (a) DNA has two different sugarsin its sugar–phosphate backbone, but RNA only has one.(b) Thymine is one of the DNA bases, whereas RNA’s correspondingbase is thymine minus a methyl group. (c) TheRNA sugar–phosphate backbone contains fewer oxygenatoms than DNA’s backbone. (d) DNA forms double helicesbut RNA cannot.arrow_forward(a) Redraw the tripeptide in zwitterionic form (b) Explain how ESI-MS can be used to determine which amino acid is in the middle of the sequence.arrow_forward
