Question

If the sequence of the coding strand in a transcription unit is written as follows: 5' -ATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGC-3' Write down the sequence of mRNA.

Answer 1

Explanation:

3'-UACGUACGUACGUACGUACGUACGUACG-5'

Answer 2

Hey Dear,

◆ Answer -

5’ − AUGCAUGCAUGCAUGCAUGCAUGCAUGC - 3’

● Explaination -

Given is the sequence of coding strand -

5' - ATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGC - 3'

We know that m-RNA formed is complimentary to template strand which itself is complimentary to coding strand.

Simply told, sequence of m-RNA strand is same as that of coding strand except T (Thymine) is replaced by U (Uracil).

Therefore, sequence of m-RNA formed is -

5’ − AUGCAUGCAUGCAUGCAUGCAUGCAUGC - 3’

Thanks dear...
