DNA sequences contain the nitrogen bases adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. RNA sequences contain the nitrogen bases adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine.

If the sequence contains thymine it is a DNA sequence if it contains uracil it is an RNA sequence.

What is an exon's role in DNA?

The exon codes for the opening sequence of DNA for protein synthesis. It is a sequence of nucleotides that code for the RNA to begin transcription of the DNA to RNA protein.


An enzyme that reads along a sequence of bases in DNA making a complementary sequence of nucleotide bases in RNA is?

RNA polymerase is the enzyme that reads along a sequence of bases in DNA and synthesizes a complementary sequence of nucleotide bases in RNA during transcription.


Is there a template for transcribing original DNA to base sequence of RNA?

Yes, to transcribe DNA to RNA, replace thymine (T) in DNA with uracil (U) in RNA. Simply write down the complementary RNA bases to the DNA bases following this rule to transcribe the original DNA sequence to RNA.


How do you write an RNA sequence if given the DNA sequence?

Bases A and T link together and C and G link together. If your DNA sequence was, for example, ATCGAGT your RNA sequence would be TAGCTCA.

What is a DNA terminator sequence?

A DNA terminator sequence is a specific nucleotide sequence that signals the end of transcription for RNA polymerase, thus stopping the synthesis of RNA from DNA. It usually contains a stem-loop structure that causes RNA polymerase to dissociate from the DNA template.


A section of DNA has the base sequence GCTTAA the corresponding messanger RNA base sequence will be?

RNA is copied just like DNA, except thymine (T) is replaced by uracil (U), so the corresponding base sequence for GCTTAA would be CGAAUU
