Transcription and Translation .A graduate student determined that the sequence GAT exits in a section of DNA. This code represents the amino acid aspartic acid.Will aspartic acid definitely be found in the transcribed mRNA strand? Will it definitely be found in the synthesized protein chain? Explain your answer.

Respuesta :

Explanation:

Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins.  The sequence GAT is on the sense strand  5' → 3' direction, thus it has the same sequence as mRNA

Codons encoding aspartic acid will be found on the mRNA strand as GAT. As each odon encodes one amino acid, it will be present on the synthesised chain; mRNA codons undergo transation- this will produce Asp, aspartic acid.

Further Explanation:

The nucleic acids are comprised of smaller units called nucleotides and function as storage for the body’s genetic information. These monomers include ribonucleic acid (RNA) or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). They differ from other macromolecules since they don’t provide the body with energy. They exist solely to encode and protein synthesis.

Basic makeup: C, H, O, P... life on Earth is Carbon based nucleotides contain 5-carbon sugars, and nitrogen; the bases may contain single to double bond rings

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. Codons are three nucleotide bases, with each codon encoding an amino acid or signalling the beginning or end of protein synthesis.

RNA codons determine certain amino acids so the order in which the bases occur within in the codon sequence designates which amino acid is to be made bus with the four RNA nucleotides (Adenine, Cysteine and Uracil) Up to 64 codons (with 3 as stop codons) determine amino acid synthesis. The stop codons ( UAG UGA UAA) terminate amino acid/ protein synthesis while the start codon AUG begins protein synthesis.
