The sequence of amino acids (forming a protein) that result from the mRNA strand CAG-AAG-UUC-CUC-UCG-C would be:
Glutamine-Threonine-Phenylalanine-Leucine-Serine
Each codon must be three bases long - therefore the end of this mRNA sequence 'C' cannot code for an amino acid. There would also need to be a stop codon at the end to complete translation.

What strand of DNA contains codes for the amino acids that make up a protein?
The messenger RNA (mRNA) strand contains the codes for the amino acids that make up a protein. During protein synthesis, the mRNA strand is used by ribosomes to read the genetic information and assemble the corresponding amino acids.
Is a strand of mRNA short?
That depends on the type of protein it needs to make. Bigger the polypeptide, longer the mRNA.
What strand of mrna has the bases ccu?
The strand of mRNA that has the bases "CCU" corresponds to the DNA template strand that would have the complementary bases "GGA." In the context of protein synthesis, "CCU" codes for the amino acid proline in the genetic code. Thus, this specific mRNA sequence plays a crucial role in the translation process during protein synthesis.
What Moves along the mRNA and helps form the peptide strand?
Ribosomes move along the mRNA during protein synthesis. They help bring together amino acids to form a peptide strand based on the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA.
What is the subunit of a ribosome holds onto the mRNA strand?
The ribosomal subunit of a ribosome holds onto the mRNA strand
How many strands does mRNA have?
mRNA typically consists of a single strand of nucleotides. It serves as a temporary copy of the genetic information in DNA and carries this information from the nucleus to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.
What happeneds in synthesis?
First, the DNA polymerase makes a copy of the DNA. The nucleotides then bond together and form a complete mRNA strand. The mRNA strand travels out to the cytoplasm through the nucleus. The mRNA is then met by a ribosome and tRNA. Codons and amino acids are then created. After the tRNA detaches from the mRNA strand, the amino acids are connected by a polypeptide bond. This results in a protein. So basically... Protein synthesis is going from DNA to mRNA to tRNA to a protein.
How do you make a protein from DNA?
mRNA transcribes a strand of DNA and carries the genetic code to a ribosome, where the mRNA code is translated by tRNA into a strand of amino acids, making a protein.
How does protein synthesis create a protein?
A protein is created through translation of the mRNA strand. A ribosome will attach to the mRNA strand and recruit tRNA units that hold specific amino acids. Each tRNA anticodon matches with a correlating mRNA codon. The amino acids are then linked into a polypeptide chain. This polypeptide chain will fold and twist to create a specific protein.
What is the relationship between the template strand and the mRNA transcribed from it?
The template strand is used as a guide to create mRNA during transcription. The mRNA is complementary to the template strand and carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.
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?
There would be 393 bases on the mRNA strand corresponding to 131 amino acids, as each amino acid is coded for by a sequence of three bases (1 codon). By multiplying the number of amino acids by 3, you can determine the total number of bases required to encode the protein sequence on mRNA.
What strand of DNA contains codes for the amino acids that make up a protein?
The messenger RNA (mRNA) strand contains the codes for the amino acids that make up a protein. During protein synthesis, the mRNA strand is used by ribosomes to read the genetic information and assemble the corresponding amino acids.
How is mRNA formed in the process of protein synthesis?
mRNA is formed during protein synthesis through a process called transcription. In transcription, the DNA sequence is copied into a complementary mRNA strand by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. This mRNA strand carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosomes, where it is used as a template to assemble amino acids into a protein.
Transcription is the process of what?
Transcription is the process of converting DNA into mRNA. During transcription, enzymes read the DNA sequence and create a complementary mRNA strand that carries the genetic information from the nucleus to the ribosomes for protein synthesis.
Is a strand of mRNA short?
That depends on the type of protein it needs to make. Bigger the polypeptide, longer the mRNA.
Where is protein made?
Proteins are made in the ribosomes when the mRNA strand from the nucleus is matched with the anti codon tRNA strand.
What Moves along the mRNA and helps form the peptide strand?
Ribosomes move along the mRNA during protein synthesis. They help bring together amino acids to form a peptide strand based on the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA.
