What determines the amino acid sequence in a protein?
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.
Why is the correct sequence of DNA bases important to the production of proteins?
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.
What determines the sequence of amino-acids in a protein?
The DNA carries the instructions for protein synthesis. These instructions are copied onto mRNA, which then travels to the ribosome. At the ribosome, the mRNA is translated into the correct sequence of amino acids.
What determines the mRNA sequence?
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.
What is the relationship between the linear sequence of codons on mRNA and the linear sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide?
The linear sequence of codons on mRNA determines the linear sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide.
What are the bases on the mRNA strands are called?
A 3-base sequence of nitrogen bases on a molecule of mRNA is called a codon.
A segment of DNA has the following sequence TTAAGGCC. Which sequence of bases would be found on the complementary strand of mRNA?
The complimentary strand of MRNA would be AAUUCCGG.
What is the relationship between codons and anticodons?
A codon is found in the DNA sequence and in the mRNA sequence. The anticodon is the opposite sequence that would match with the sequence of the codon and allows pairing of the anticodon with the codon
Which structure determines the sequence of the building blocks in a protein?
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.
What sequence of bases determines an organisms?
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.
A segment of DNA has the following sequence ttaaggcc which sequence of bases would be found on the complementary strand of mrna?
TGCA
What does trna uses to match to the mrna?
tRNA contains an anticodon which is a sequence of three nitrogen bases that is complimentary to a particular mRNA codon.
