Problem Set II Nucleic Acids: Replication, Transcription and Translation Problem 1. 10 points. Human and bacteria differ in the organization of genetic information. A series of eukaryotic gene sequences (coding sequences) is given below. Based on this portion of the gene sequence, which gene could produce a protein that contains 300 amino acids and has a phenylalanine residue near its N-terminus?
