What amino acid sequence does the following dna nucleotide sequence specify? 3′−tacagaacggta−5′.

Respuesta :

The amino acid sequence for the following DNA sequence is Met-Ser-Cys-His.

What is transcription and translation?

Transcription is the process of conversion of genetic information carried by the DNA into messenger RNA (mRNA).

  • Sense strand of DNA is the one which runs in 5’ to 3’ direction and carries the information while antisense strand runs in 3’ to 5’ direction and serves as a template.
  • E.g.: Antisense strand 3′−TACAGAACGGTA−5′

               mRNA sequence 5’−ATGTCTTGCCAT−3’

Translation is the process of conversion of information carried by the mRNA into an amino acid sequence.

  • The genetic code is read as a sequence of 3 nucleotides together at a time and is called codon.
  • For example: 'ATG' is a start codon coding for methionine.

        Here, mRNA sequence 5’−ATGTCTTGCCAT−3’

        Amino acid sequence: Met-Ser-Cys-His
