Question

multiple choice question

what amino acid sequence is encoded by the dna template sequence 3-taccgcgctctaccg-5?

methionine-alanine-arginine-aspartic acid-glycine
proline-tryptophan-arginine-glutamic acid-methionine
methionine-arginine-alanine-aspartic acid-proline
tyrosine-arginine-alanine-leucine-proline

Explanation:

Transcribe DNA template to mRNA

$$
LATEXBLOCK0
$$

Translate mRNA codons to amino acids

$$
LATEXBLOCK1
$$

Match with the correct option

$$ \text{Sequence:} \quad \text{Methionine-Alanine-Arginine-Aspartic Acid-Glycine} $$

Answer:

• (A) Methionine-Alanine-Arginine-Aspartic Acid-Glycine (Correct answer)
• (B) Proline-Tryptophan-Arginine-Glutamic Acid-Methionine
• (C) Methionine-Arginine-Alanine-Aspartic Acid-Proline
• (D) Tyrosine-Arginine-Alanine-Leucine-Proline
