How many amino acids are coded for by the sequence on side a of this DNA strand?

It depends on the length of the mRNA. Because one codon codes for one amino acid and there are three bases to a codon, the number of amino acids that are synthesized into a protein can be determined by taking the number of bases on the mRNA and dividing it by three.

∙ 10y agoRNA encodes amino acids in groups of three (called "codons").
So, UAU-CAU-CCA-CUU-GGU-UGA consists of 6 codons.
This mRNA sequence codes for:
mRNA --> tRNA --> amino acid
UAU --> AUA --> Ile (isoleucine)
CAU --> GUA --> Val (valine)
CCA --> GGU --> Gly (glycine)
CUU --> GAA --> Glu (glutamic acid)
GGU --> CCA --> Pro (proline)
UGA --> ACU --> Thr (threonine)
So, the amino acid sequence would be: Ile-Val-Gly-Glu-Pro-Thr
Among the codons, there are also STOP sequences that stop encoding of a particular polypeptide sequence. However, those are not present here.

The RNA species that carries the coded message specifying the sequence of amino acids in the protein to be made from the nuclueus to the cytoplasm is?
mRNA
What amino acids are coded by UGU?
Cysteine ^_^
Do you use mrna codons or trna anticodons for coding chart to tell us what amino acids are coded in dna coding strand?
You use the mRNA. ;)
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.
List the amino acids in the order they would appear in the polypeptide coded for by the mRNA?
list the amino acids the way they would appear in the polypeptides coded for by the mRNA
51Which of the following is the correct sequence of amino acids coded by the DNA strand?
ASN, ALA, PHE, ARG.
What is protein primary structure?
it's a genetically coded sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain
The RNA species that carries the coded message specifying the sequence of amino acids in the protein to be made from the nuclueus to the cytoplasm is?
mRNA
Which amino acid was never coded for?
Several amino acids are not coded for in biology. 20 are. The two standard amino acids are selenocysteine and pyrrolysine. Then there are the numerous non-standard amino acids, which include hydroxyproline and selenomethionine.
What is the linear chain of amino acids in a protein?
The monomers in a polypeptide are the amino acids. The sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide (or protein) is called the primary structure. It is the primary structure of proteins which is coded for by the DNA in the genes: the sequence of bases in the DNA is a code for the sequence of amino acids in a protein (or polypeptide).

What is the type of RNA that carries the coded message which specifies the sequence of amino acids that will form the protein called?
mRNA (messenger RNA)
What amino acids are coded for by the mRnas?
All of them.
What amino acids are coded by UGU?
Cysteine ^_^

How many amino acids are coded for by the DNA?
3
How many amino acids can be coded from a nucleotide?

What makes up proteins?
amino acidsAmino acids make up proteins. It happened in cytoplasm of the cell where mRNA, ribosomes, tRNA work together to synthesize proteins. The message for the proteins sequence is coded in DNA.
