Question

What is the sequence of the other DNA strand?

Here is the sequence of a portion of one strand of DNA 5' GTCCTAACGACTGATCGT 3' What is the sequence of the other DNA strand? (1) Suppose that this is the sequence from the template strand of DNA. What is the corresponding RNA sequence that would be transcribed using this sequence as the template? (1) a. b. c. BONUS) Suppose that this sequence is from an exon in the middle of a gene. What is the amino acid sequence that would be translated from this gene? (This question requires da little more insight than it might seem. Consult the codon table provided) (1)

Explanation / Answer

a. 3' CAGGATTGCTGACTAGCA 5'

b. 5' GUCCUAACGACUGAUCGU 3'

c. Val-Leu-Thr-Thr-Asp-Arg
