How many amino acids would the a nucleotide have?

A nucleotide does not contain any amino acids. Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA and RNA and consist of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are coded for by sequences of nucleotides in DNA.


How many amino acids will be formed from a 15-nucleotide sequence?

5, this was a bio question for me at Edison community college.


How many amino acids are coded for by the DNA?

3


How many amino acids does the strand of dna gccttatgc have?

That strand should have 3 amino acids, because one amino acid is composed of three nucleotide bases.


How many amino acids would be in a protein that is coded by a DNA strand ninety-nine nucleotides long?

If all the nucleotides are protein coding with no control sequences, then 33. Each amino acid is coded for by 3 nucleotide bases. 99 divided by 3 = 33.


Are amino acid that are represented by one codon?

yes, but there are amino acids can be represented by many codons.


How many bases does a gene coding for a polypeptide made of 51 amino acids have?

A gene coding for a polypeptide made of 51 amino acids would have (51 \times 3 = 153) bases. Each amino acid is coded by a sequence of three nucleotide bases in mRNA called a codon. So, the number of bases required to code for a polypeptide can be calculated by multiplying the number of amino acids by 3.


If a protein is 3300 amino acids long how many nucleotides pairs long is the gene sequence that codes for this protein?

Since each amino acid is coded for by a combination of three nucleotide bases (a codon), the number of nucleotides in the gene sequence would be 3300 * 3 = 9900 nucleotide base pairs long.


If there are three amino acids how many bases would there be on the M RNA to make these three?

Each amino acid is encoded by a set of three nucleotide bases in mRNA, known as a codon. Therefore, to encode three amino acids, there would need to be a total of nine nucleotide bases in the mRNA (3 amino acids x 3 bases per amino acid = 9 bases).


How many amino acids are coded for in the segment 5' atcagcgctggc 3'?

To determine how many amino acids are coded for in the segment 5' atcagcgctggc 3', we first need to convert the DNA sequence into its corresponding mRNA sequence. The mRNA sequence would be 5' UAG UCG CUG CCG 3'. Each amino acid is coded for by a codon, which consists of three nucleotides. Therefore, this mRNA sequence contains four codons, coding for four amino acids.


How do nucleotides in the RNA molecule code for various amino acids How many nucleotides code for one amino acid?

Each nucleotide is made up of an organic base, a pentose sugar and a phosphate. Nucleotides can be arranged in various different orders and that order dictates which amino acid it codes for, three amino acids code for one nucleotide. Is this enough detail?


How many codons are in 150 amino acids?

There are 150 codons required to code for 150 amino acids in a protein. Each amino acid is coded for by a specific sequence of three nucleotides (a codon) in the mRNA molecule during protein synthesis.
