Question
Here is the sequence of a coding strand in the middle section of a gene.5' TATGGC 3' What is the mRNA sequence of this section of the gene? Group of answer choices5' UAUGGC 3'5' AUACCG 3'5' GCCAUA 3'5' CGGUAU 3'
Solution
The mRNA sequence of this section of the gene would be 5' AUACCG 3'.
Here's the step-by-step process:
-
Transcription is the process where the DNA sequence is copied into mRNA.
-
In this process, the DNA strand is used as a template to synthesize the mRNA strand.
-
The DNA bases pair with their complementary bases on the mRNA strand: Adenine (A) pairs with Uracil (U), Thymine (T) pairs with Adenine (A), Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G), and Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C).
-
So, for the DNA sequence 5' TATGGC 3', the corresponding mRNA sequence would be 5' AUACCG 3'.
