Question
Here is the sequence of a portion of a bacterial gene. The template strand
is on the bottom:
5'-ATGCTGCGTGCATGGGATATAGGTAGCACACGTCC-3'
3'-TACGACGCACGTACCC TATATCC ATCGTGTGCAGG-5'
(a) Assuming that transcription starts with the first C in the template
strand, and continues to the end, what would be the sequence of the
MRNA derived from this fragment?
(b) Find the initiation and stop codons in this mRNA.
(c) Would there be an effect on translation of changing the fourth T in the
template strand to a C? If so, what effect?
(d) Would there be an effect on translation of changing the fourth A in the
template strand to a C? If so, what effect?
