Question

Which mrna sequence codes for the amino acid sequence leu–gly–asp–arg? select one:

a. 5' cua ggu gau agc 3'
b. 5' cua cag gau aga 3'
c. 5' aga gau gga uua 3'
d. 5' uua gga gau aga 3'?

Answer 1

d. 5' uua gga gau aga 3'?

Answer 2

Answer;

D. 5' UUA GGA GAU AGA 3'

The mRNA sequence that codes for the amino acid sequence leu–gly–asp–arg

5' UUA GGA GAU AGA 3'.

Explanation;

A codon is a sequence of three DNA or RNA sequence that corresponds with a specific amino acid or stop signal during protein synthesis.

In this case; UUA codes for amino acid Leucine, GGA codes for glycine, GAU codes for aspartate and AGA codes for arginine
