Chapter 28: Q28-9P (page 954)

What amino acid sequence is coded by the following mRNA base sequence?

CUU-AUG-GCU-UGG-CCC-UAA

Short Answer

Expert verified

The amino acid sequence for the given mRNA is Leu-Met-Ala-Trp-Pro-Stop.

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

The mRNA sequence in the question can be given as,

CUU-AUG-GCU-UGG-CCC-UAA

02

Explanation for the amino acid sequence

The message denotes 鈥楲eu鈥� as C is first base, U is second base and U is third base. A and U are first and second base and G is third base. Then the message denotes 鈥楳et鈥�. For GCU, G and C is first and second base then U is third base. Then, the message denotes 鈥楢la鈥�. The message indicates 鈥楾rp鈥� as C is first, second and third base.

The final code message indicates 鈥楽top鈥� as C is the first, second, and third base. There is a synthesis of proper proteins as the last amino acid is stopped. The end denotes the stop and the release of protein of the ribosome.
