Question

Convert the above DNA sequence into a mRNA transcript

b) What are the 6 different Open reading frames (ORFs) possible? Enlist all of

them

c) What is the amino acids sequence of the probable protein translated?

d) Make the following point mutation resulting in D4A in the nucleotide sequence

(Mention all possible ways you can do it).

e) Introduce a stop codon at the end of your transcript instead of an early

truncation (truncated protein).​

Answer 1

Why are there 6 reading frames when DNA is translated?

Every region of DNA has six possible reading frames, three in each direction. The reading frame that is used determines which amino acids will be encoded by a gene. ... The three reading frames in the forward direction are shown with the translated amino acids below each DNA seqeunceI think it is helpful for you if it is helpful please follow me and Mike me as brain list
