Best Answer

DNA works on the principle of complementary base pairing.

Adenine pairs with thymine and guanine with cytosine.

In case of RNA thymine is replaced by uracil.

Base pairs are like two piece puzzles, only certain ones fit with each other. If two non-matching bases tried to pair, it would cause a mutation or even death.

Different order means a different protein if you're talking about amino acid sequencing, if your talking about DNA different order could change everything or at a minimum cause a mutation

What does trna uses to match to the mrna?

tRNA contains an anticodon which is a sequence of three nitrogen bases that is complimentary to a particular mRNA codon.


What is the relationship between codons and anticodons?

A codon is found in the DNA sequence and in the mRNA sequence. The anticodon is the opposite sequence that would match with the sequence of the codon and allows pairing of the anticodon with the codon


How do you connect aminoacyl with trna?

The connection of the aminoacids with tRNA is one of the most important steps leadind to the protein syntesis. It happens with the help of an enzyme complex named aminoacyl-tRNA syntetase, which is specific for each of the twenty aminoacids, that is able to recognize the specific tRNA based on sequence match of the anticodon.


What order of bases on mRNA will match a sequence on tRNA of UUA?

If the tRNA has the sequence UUA, then the mRNA it reads from will have the sequence complementary to UUA, which is AAU. RNA uses the nucleic acid uracil instead of the DNA counterpart, thymine.

How to co nvert RNA sequence 5'-augaagaaguuctga-3' to amino acid sequence?

To match up an RNA sequence to an amino acid one, you have to match up the corresponding letters (which are one of the 4 bases in DNA): RNA: U , A , C , G Will match with: DNA: A , T , G , C RNA is different to DNA because instead of a T it has a U. Therefore your question can't be correct because there are 5 letters in total in yours. If, however, i were to take out the 'T', the answer would be: tacttcttcaagct But this answer could not be correct because all DNA sequences must equal a multiple of 3, because every three letters forms 1 amino acid.
