Question

part 1
here is the wild - type dna sequence again:
atgtgccctttg...
drag and drop the amino acid abbreviations to put together the correct wild - type amino acid sequence. place the first amino acid on the left.
amino acid options: ala, arg, asn, asp, cys, glu, gln, gly, his, ile, leu, lys, met, phe, pro, ser, thr, tyr, trp, val
part 2 (not fully visible)

Explanation:

Step1: Transcribe DNA to mRNA

The wild - type DNA sequence is \(ATGTGCCCCTTTG...\). To get the mRNA sequence, we use the base - pairing rules (A - U, T - A, G - C, C - G). So the mRNA sequence from the given DNA is \(AUGUGCCCCUUUG...\).

Step2: Translate mRNA to amino acids (using codon table)

  • The first codon is \(AUG\). From the codon table (shown in the image), \(AUG\) codes for \(Met\) (start codon).
  • The second codon is \(UGC\). Looking at the codon table, \(UGC\) codes for \(Cys\).
  • The third codon is \(CCC\). From the codon table, \(CCC\) codes for \(Pro\).
  • The fourth codon is \(UUU\) (the next codon from \(UUUG\) is \(UUU\) initially for translation). From the codon table, \(UUU\) codes for \(Phe\).

Answer:

The correct amino acid sequence from left to right is Met, Cys, Pro, Phe.
