The DNA sequence that was used for synthesizing this mRNA sequence is E. TTGTCTATGGGTAGCUUU.
The mRNA sequence is transcribed from DNA using the complementary base pairing rule.
This means that the mRNA sequence is the opposite of the DNA sequence, with uracil (U) replacing thymine (T). The DNA sequence can be found by reversing the mRNA sequence and replacing U with T.
The DNA sequence that was used for synthesizing this mRNA sequence is the reverse of the mRNA sequence, with T replacing U. Therefore, the DNA sequence is TTGTCTATGGGTAGCUUU.
The full question is:
A researcher conducted studies on proteins obtained from mouse livers. He discovered a novel protein and decided to study its genetic origins. During his tests, the researcher found the mRNA sequence AUUCGGUACUGUACUAGC.
