Use the mRNA sequence aug-gga-aau-cgg-uca to determine the resulting amino acid sequence?

AUG: Methionine (start codon for transcription) AAU: Asparagine GGC: Glycine UCG: Serine AUC: Isoleucine UGA: Stop codon (this does not encode for an amino acid)


Why is the deletion of a DNA base likely to have more serious effects than a DNA base subsitution?

If a base is merely substituted, the reading frame remains altered only by that one base, which may or may not change the amino acid encoded in the codon. If a base were inserted or deleted, there will be a reading frame shift which would have a profound effect on the amino acids encoded. For example, a sample of RNA has the following sequence: AUG AUA AAG CUA CCG GGC UAG ... which translates to M-I-K-L-P-G If the second condon changed from AUA to AUC, then the amino acid sequence would remain the same. If the second condon were to have its second A deleted, then the entire amino acid sequence changes to: M-I-S-T-R-A...


What is a anticodon how does it function?

An anticodon is the base of a tRNA. a tRNA transfer the information from the mRNA to the amino acid to form a protein. The anticodon on the tRNA helps it to bind to codons on the mRNA through complementary base pairing to as to make the correct proteins.


What are the nucleotide sequences of tRNA that are complementary to codons on mRNA?

Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules have anticodons that are complementary to the codons on messenger RNA (mRNA). For example, if the mRNA codon is AUG, the tRNA anticodon would be UAC. This complementary base pairing ensures that the correct amino acid is brought to the ribosome during translation.

What is AUC GGU AAC?

AUC GGU AAC is a sequence of RNA nucleotides. It represents three codons in the genetic code: AUC (which codes for the amino acid isoleucine), GGU (glycine), and AAC (asparagine). This sequence can be translated by ribosomes to produce a specific sequence of amino acids in a protein.

Is the nucleotide sequence in an mRNA codon an exact copy of the DNA triplet that coded for it?

Yes, the mRNA sequence is created by transcribing the complementary strand of the DNA sequence, so it is almost an exact copy. However, in RNA, uracil replaces thymine, so the mRNA codon is identical to the DNA triplet except for the substitution of uracil for thymine.

Codons found in messenger RNA?

Anticodons are sequences of three base pairs on a transfer RNA that correspond to (and subsequently pair up with) codons on messenger RNAs. These complementary pairs come together by forming hydrogen bonds. For example, a tRNA with the anticodon UUU may correspond to the codon AAA on the mRNA.

Why are mutations such as nitrogen-based additions often much more harmful than nitrogen-based substitutions?

Insertions or deletions causes much severe mutations because they generate frameshift mutations. For example: The sequence AUA-GGA-UAU-CCU is normally translated to I-G-Y-P A substitution such as AUC-GGA-UAU-CCU has no effect on the amino acid sequence because of redundancy in the codon table. (AUC and AUA both code for isoleucine) Another substitution such as AUA-GGA-CAU-CCU is a bit more severe because it changes the sequence to I-G-H-P. However, since only one amino acid is changed, the overall protein may only be slightly affected (however there are instances where a single amino acid change can drastically change the behaviour of the protein, e.g. sickle cell anemia). A deletion such as AU_-GGA-UAU-CCU is much more severe since to the ribosome, the new sequence is AUG-GAU-AUC-CU (a 'frameshift'), and it will be translated as M-D-I, which is completely different from the original sequence and will likely cause the vast majority of the amino acids after the deletion to be incorrect, creating a completely useless protein. An insertion such as AUA-GGA-UAAU-CCU will now be read as AUA-GGA-UAA-UCC-U, which is translated to I-G-Stop-S. This introduction of a premature Stop codon will truncate the protein, once again generating a useless protein.


Which anticodon pairs with gau?

The answer is AUC. Anti codons follow regular base-pairing rules, but they are also mirrored horizontally. Standard base pairing would dictate the answer be CUA, but anti codon is instead AUC. The previous answer was misleading and incorrect.
