28-38 Valganciclovir, marketed as Valcyte, is an antiviral agent used for the treatment of cytomegalovirus. Called a prodrug, valganciclovir is inactive by itself but is rapidly converted in the intestine by hydrolysis of its ester bond to produce an active drug, called ganciclovir, along with an amino acid.

Question: Draw the complete structure of the deoxyribonucleotide sequence from which the mRNA codon in problem 28-29 was transcribed.
