(2 pts) Consider the following DNA sequence
* ^
5'. TGACTATGCACTTCGAGCTTACCTAATGGCACG. -3'
3' ACTGATACGTGAAGCTCGAATGGATTACCGTGC-5 '
a
Write the mRNA that it encodes, assuming the bottom strand serves as the template.
b. Translate the resulting mRNA sequence to protein sequence, using the genetic code provided.
Remember to start at a start codon.
c. Imagine that the nucleotide marked by * is mutated form C to T. What effect would this have
on the encoded protein?
d. Imagine that the nucleotide marked by ^ is mutated form G to T. What effect would this have
on the encoded protein?
