∙ 11y agoThe mRNA strand CUC-AAG-UGC-UUC matches up to a DNA template of GAG-TTC-ACG-AAG (C binds with G, G with C, A with T and U with A).
However, there is a difference going back from mRNA to DNA (instead of the usual process of going from DNA to mRNA), because after the original DNA template is copied, the introns are spliced (cut) out of the RNA before it leaves the nucleus. This means that there are sections in the original DNA template that are not present in the mRNA.
DNA that is created from RNA is known as complementary DNA, or cDNA. Always remember that this DNA does not include introns, only exons (the sections that code for a protein).

Suppose 1 strand of a DNA molecule contained the following bases a c g t c t g what would be the bases on the other strand?
tgcagac. A pairs with T and C Pairs with G.
What is organic compounds composed of amino acids called?
Amino acids contain both the amino (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) groups. Proteins are formed by amino acids.
What is the order of bases on the complementary side of the strand B from left to right?
AAACCCGTT I have an assignment for this SO I am 90% sure, but I know it's right.
What do you call a 3 letter word on a mRNA molecule?
The three-base sequence on a tRNA molecule is known as an anti-codon. This matches up with the codon (another 3-base code) on the mRNA to ensure that the correct amino acid is added to the chain (protein) being created.
How does Frameshift affect an organism?
frameshift is a type of genetic mutation.we all have nitrogenous bases present as triplet codons which codes for the 20 amino acids.3 specific bases codes for a specific amino acid.when any other base enters into this specific codon then there is a shift in the reading frame and the new codon formed doesn't transcribe to produce the same amino acid.this is also known as frame shift.
A strand of mRNA has the bases adenine-cytosine- Which amino acid corresponds to these bases?
Pro. Thr.
A strand of mRNA has the bases adenine-cytosine-uracil Which amino acid corresponds to these bases?
Pro. Thr.
A protein contains 131 amino acids How many bases will there be on the mRNA strand corresponding to these amino acids and how do you know?
131*3=393 bases might be there on mRNA strand 3 codons of mRNA strand deduce an aminoacid of a protein, so here, mRNA strand bases are being asked.
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 bases on a strand of mRNA code for one amino acid?
3 nucleotides
Which amino acid corresponds to these guanine adenine uracil bases?
Asp Apex
How does DNA help make proteins?
The order of bases in DNA is a code. Proteins are made of substances called, " Amino acids". A long strand of amino acids forms a protein.
What are the bases on the complimentary strand of bases for strand with the bases AAGCCA?
TTCGGT
Is it 1 or 3 codons equal one amino acid?
One. A codon, made up of three DNA bases (ATG, for example) corresponds to one amino acid. A whole bunch of codons strung together on the DNA corresponds to a whole bunch of amino acids, ultimately strung together to form a peptide, or protein.
If an mRNA is made up of 60 bases how many codons does it contain and how many amino acid does it code for?
A codon is exactly three bases long, so an mRNA strand with 60 bases would contain 20 codons. The first codon will encode for methionine (this is called the "start" codon) and the last codon will be a "stop" codon, which does not encode for an amino acid. Thus, an mRNA strand of 60 bases will code for 19 amino acids. Keep in mind, it is possible for a stop codon to be anywhere on the mRNA strand, and when a stop codon reaches the ribosome, translation must stop. For example, if an mRNA strand contained 30 codons, and the 15th were a stop codon, the mRNA would only code for 14 amino acids and then be done. The other 15 codons would go untranslated.
Does a sequence of three bases form a amino acid?
No, a sequence of three bases (called a codon) does not directly form an amino acid. However, each codon in a sequence of DNA or RNA corresponds to a specific amino acid, according to the genetic code. The sequence of codons determines the order in which amino acids are assembled during protein synthesis.
How can only four nitrogen bases make up All the protein in your bodies?
Proteins are made of hundreds of amino acids joined together, each 3 base code in the RNA corresponds to an amino acid.
