What strand of DNA is used to make a complementary copy or to make a complementary mRNA molecule-?
The strand is called the parental strand. the gene being copied would depend on which protein is needed.
What is strand of DNA that codes for a specific trait?
A gene is a strand of DNA that codes for a specific trait
Deletion is when a whole segment of a gene is?
Deletion occurs when a whole segment of a gene is lost.
Why is one strand of the DNA molecule labeled Template DNA?
DNA acts as a template for two things: # DNA # mRNA transcripts This is possible because each nitrogenous base in one strand pairs only with one other base in the complementary strand as follows: Adenine (A) always pairs with Thymine (T) Guanine (G) always pairs with Cytosine (C) Note: in RNA, Uracil (U) takes the place of Thymine (T), but still always pairs with Adenine (A). So, if one looks at a single strand of DNA, one can reconstruct the sequence of the complementary strand from the original strand, because each base on one strand will pair with only one base on the other. Consider this single strand of DNA: DNA acts as a template because of one fact: each nitrogenous base in one strand pairs only with one other base in the complementary strand as follows: Adenine always pairs with Thymine (or Uracil in RNA) Guanine always pairs with Cytosine So, if one looks at a single strand of DNA, one can reconstruct the sequence of the complementary strand from the original strand, because each base on one strand will pair with only one base on the other. Consider this single strand of DNA: ATTGCAT Looking at the first base, we know that A always pairs with T, and that T always pairs with A for the second base, and so on. Therefore we can reconstruct the complementary strand is: TAACGTA The mRNA transcript would be: UAACGUA This fact is important in two ways. First, when a cell needs to replicate its DNA, it uses an enzyme, DNA Polymerase, to assemble complementary strands by adding nucleotides with the appropriate matching bases along the strand. The result is two identical, complete DNA molecules. Secondly, when the cell needs to build messenger RNA for protein synthesis, it uses an enzyme called RNA Polymerase to assemble the mRNA transcript by adding RNA nucleotides with the complementary matching bases from the DNA strand. The result is an mRNA transcript which will be translated into a protein whose amino acid sequence will reflect the codon sequence of the original DNA strand.
A segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a?
A segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a gene, or an exon.
What represents the transfer RNA bases that correspond to DNA gene segment gccaatgct?
cgguuacga the t in DNA changes to u in rna
What strand of DNA is used to make a complementary copy or to make a complementary mRNA molecule-?
The strand is called the parental strand. the gene being copied would depend on which protein is needed.
What is a molecule of Rna complementary to the coding strand DNA in the gene?
radioactive or fluorescent-labeled rna or single stranded DNA pieces that are complementary to the gene of interests are called?
What allows DNA probe to find a Single-strand target Gene?
Complementary base pairing.
What is strand of DNA that codes for a specific trait?
A gene is a strand of DNA that codes for a specific trait
What would be the sequence of the complimentary DNA strand for this gene atc gtt aac gca?
The complementary base of A is T, and the complementary base of G is C. So if there is an T the complementary would be A, and if there is a C the complementary would be a G and so on. Therefore the complementary strand would be: G A A T C C G A A T G G T.
The first stage of gene expression is called?
The first stage of gene expression is known as transcription. This is the process by which RNA Polymerase, along with other transcription factors, reads and transcribes the DNA sequence into a complementary RNA strand.
What would the complementary mRNA strand be for this gene tac ttg cta act?
AUG AAC GAU UGA Please specificy 5' 3' end for more clarity
Why are two different primers required for the polymerase chain reaction?
Must use the forward and reverse primers to bind to complementary sequence at the 3' end of the template strand - each NEW strand is built in 5' to 3' direction. They flank the targeted gene region - must attach one to each strand of the target DNA.
Deletion is when a whole segment of a gene is?
Deletion occurs when a whole segment of a gene is lost.
When transcription begins the enzyme is called?
the RNA polymerase attaches to the promoter and transcribes the gene in messenger RNA, or mRNA
What is a segment with information to make a protein?
A segment of DNA on a chromosome that controls the production of a protein is called a gene. Chromosome a cellular structure that contains DNA.
