Protein Synthesis
Directions:
A. Make a complementary strand for the given DNA sequences.
B. Then create the mRNA codon.
C. And use the mRNA codon to create the tRNA anticodon and determine the corresponding amino acids by
referring to the table of genetic code below.
Given:
1. ATGGGAGCGTTTACTTATGTATACTCGTAA
2. GTATGGGAGCGTTTACTTATGTATAGTCG
3. TATATGCTTCGTGTATGAACTTATGGGCCC
4. CCCGGATGTTTTCCGGTATCGTATGA
1. TACCTCGCAAAATGAATACATATGAGCATT
2. CATACCCTCGCAAAATGAATACATATCAGC
3. ATATACGAAGCACATACTTGAAATACCCGG
4. GGGCCTACAAAAAGGCCATAGCATACT
B. Creating the mRNA codon:
1. UACCCUCGCAAUAUGAUACAUACUCGAUU
2. CAUACCUCGCAAUAUGAUACAUACUCGAG
3. AUAACGAAGCACAUACUUGAAUAUCCC
4. GGGCCAACAACCCGGCAUAGCAUACU
C. Creating the tRNA anticodon and determining the corresponding amino acids:
1. AUUGGAGCGUUAAUACUAUGUAUGAGCUAA
2. GUAUGGAGCGUUAAUACUAUGUAUGACUC
3. UAUUGCUUCGUGUAUGAACCUAUAAGGG
The codons UAU, UGC, and UCC correspond to the amino acids Tyrosine, Cysteine, and Serine.
4. CCCGGUUGUUGGGCCGUACGUAUGA
The codons CCC, GGU, GUG, and GGC correspond to the amino acids Proline.
