the sequence of bases in DNA
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the mRNA, and this is determined by the sequence of nucleotide bases in the DNA.
The genetic code is determined by the specific sequence of four nucleotide bases that make up DNA. The bases are guanine, adenine, thymine, and cytosine.
The sequence of DNA is used, through a process involving the different types of RNA, into amino acids to produce the proteins. The sequence is what determines the amino acids used, and thus an incorrect sequence will build a different protein.
A 3-base sequence of nitrogen bases on a molecule of mRNA is called a codon.
The genetic code stored in DNA is the sequence of nitrogen bases. The sequence of nitrogen bases determines the sequence of amino acids in a protein, and the sequence of amino acids determines the structure and function of a protein.
mRNA is translated into proteins by the ribosomes in the cell. This process involves decoding the mRNA sequence into a specific amino acid sequence which ultimately determines the protein's structure and function within the cell.
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene that codes for that protein. This gene is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) which is then translated into a specific sequence of amino acids based on the genetic code. Each set of three nucleotides (codon) in the mRNA specifies a particular amino acid to be added to the growing protein chain.
The complimentary strand of MRNA would be AAUUCCGG.
The linear sequence of codons on mRNA corresponds to the linear sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide through the process of translation. Each three-nucleotide codon on the mRNA molecule codes for a specific amino acid, and the sequence of codons determines the order in which amino acids are added to the growing polypeptide chain. This relationship is known as the genetic code.
The bases of mRNA coded for by a DNA segment are complementary to the original DNA sequence. If the DNA sequences are ATCG, the corresponding mRNA bases will be UAGC.
DNA determines the sequence of the amino acids (building blocks) in a protein. The sequence of nitrogen bases in the DNA determines the sequence of amino acids in a protein.
The interpretation of the sequence of bases results in The Genetic Code. Translation of the sequence of bases using the Genetic Code results in the sequence-specific production of proteins.
