Use your decoder ring to translate the following mRNA sequence AUG CCG UAG
Methionine (start), Proline, STOP
Use the following DNA sequence to get a sequence of amino acids: TCG ATT TAT
Serine, STOP, Isoleucine You must TRANSCRIBE to mRNA first, then TRANSLATE into amino acids.
A tRNA molecule is carrying the amino acid TRYPTOPHAN. What ANTICODON does the tRNA moelecule have?
ACC
Describe the relationship between a gene and a protein.
A gene is a segment of DNA that can be transcribed into mRNA to be translated into a single protein.
