What is an enzyme that separates a DNA strand to create a template for RNA bases?
MRNA
What are the bases on the complimentary strand of bases for strand with the bases AAGCCA?
TTCGGT
What do the template strands of DNA always begin with?
DNA is made of of two complimentary strands, the coding strand and the template strand. When DNA is transcribed (made into messenger RNA which can be converted by ribosomes into proteins) the DNA splits open and free nucleotide bases bind to the template strand. DNA is made of T/C/G/A and RNA is made of U/C/G/A nucleotide bases. G and C bind (they are said to be 'complimentary') A and T bind and in RNA U and A bind (so U replaces T.) The newly formed RNA strand (made on the template stand of DNA) is 'complimentary' to the template but the same as the coding strand of DNA. Hence the template is used to produce RNA which is a copy of the coding strand. Either strand of DNA can act as the template/coding strand. Hope that is a little bit helpful!
What does semi-conservative mean regard to DNA replication?
replicated DNA is made of one old strand and one new strand.
How is dna made into mRNA?
DNA is not made into mRNA, it is transcribed by mRNA. The DNA molecule is split into two strands by the enzyme helicase. One strand is the sense strand and the other is the anti-sense strand. Then mRNA nucleotides pair with their complimentary DNA bases on the antisense strand. The enzyme RNA polymerase causes the mRNA nucleotides to bond with one another, forming a strand of mRNA.
What would be the complimentary sequence of bases produced by a DNA strand with bases CTGCCA?
The sequence would be GACGGT
What enzyme connects the new bases to the old bases in the DNA template?
The central enzyme involved is DNA polymerase, which catalyzes the joining of deoxyribonucleoside 5′-triphosphates (dNTPs) to form the growing DNA chain.
What enzyme assembles the complimentary nucleotide bases during replication?
THat would be the enzyme DNA Polymerase III which attaches free floating nucleotides to the parent strand. But remember, they can only be attached to a free 3' position!
What would be the complimentary bases for a.t.c.g.c.a.t.t. for a dna strand?
A binds with T, G binds with C.Therefore the complementary strand for ATCGCATT would be TAGCGTAA.
What is the complementary sequence of bases in the strand of DNA AACCCTGAGTCT?
taacgggtac
How is DNA copied and made into a mRNA?
There is no such process. DNA cannot come from RNA unless it contains reverse transcriptase. However, there is a process that makes mRNA from a DNA strand. This process is called transcription.
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.
