Messenger RNA (mRNA) is transcribed from DNA. The mRNA is then translated into protein. http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/T/Transcription.html

What is the terminator in mRNA synthesis?
a specific nucleotide sequence in DNA that signals a stop to transcription
What is the term for a 3-nucleotide sequence on mRNA that codes for an amino acid?
the three nucleotides on a mRNA that codes for a amino acid is called a codon
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 sequence of mRNA would go with the DNA sequence of act?
If the DNA sequence is ACT, the complimentary mRNA sequence would be UGA
What is the complementary mRNA sequence to the DNA sequence A-A-T-G-G-C?
The complimentary mRNA sequence would be: U-A-A-C-G-U
Which do you suppose would be more harmful A mutation that changed the nucleotide sequence of an mRNA molecule or a mutation that changed the nucleotide sequence of a DNA molecule?
A mutation in a DNA nucleotide sequence would be more harmful than a mutation in a mRNA nucleotide sequence because it could cause the synthesis of multiple nonfunctional proteins in comparison to a mutation in a mRNA nucleotide sequence that would be less harmful because it would result in a few nonfunctional proteins.
What is the tRNA nucleotide sequence that lines up on the mRNA?
someone please improve this answer i dont know what this is.
What is the terminator in mRNA synthesis?
a specific nucleotide sequence in DNA that signals a stop to transcription
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.
What is the term for a 3-nucleotide sequence on mRNA that codes for an amino acid?
the three nucleotides on a mRNA that codes for a amino acid is called a codon
What is a ''codon''?
A three-nucleotide sequence in mRNA that specifies a particular amino acid or polypeptide termination signal; basic unit of the genetic code. In translation, an mRNA codon is recognized by its complementary tRNA anti-codon.
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 are the major steps of mRNA transcription?
mRNA is produced based on the DNA code. If the original (correct) sequence is AGC, then the correct mRNA sequence should be UCG.However, the mutated DNA sequence (ATC) now codes for the mRNA sequence UAG. So, the incorrect DNA sequence is spread through to create an incorrect mRNA sequence.
Are ribosomes the site where translations or transcription takes place?
translation
Draw an mrna strand that is complementary to the dna strand aattgc?
DNA Strand: AATTGC mRNA Strand: UUAACG I don't know what the circle a nucleotide part means
What is the structure called that can read RNA and link amino acids together to make proteins?
Transcription occurs when messenger RNA, noted as mRNA, reads the RNA . This mRNA is present in the nucleotide sequence while synthesizing protein.
What is the process of copying dna?
mRNA
