Question

Hey guys, could you help me with some of these questions please!

1. If a protein coding portion of a processed piece of RNA is 450 bases long with a stop codon at the end, how many amino acids will be formed in its corresponding polypeptide?

2. A hypothetical mRNA sequence has 27 codons, with a start codon at the beginning and a stop codon occupying the 13th codon and 27th codon.

3. How may proteins will be translated from this mRNA sequence and how many amino acids will they contain?

4. What will be the 1st amino acid of the translated proteins?

5. How many nucleotides are in the original mRNA sequence?

Answer 1

5) 4 nucleotides in a mRNA

Answer 2

charged RNA has an amino acid at one end, and at the other end it has an ... If a codon were two nucleotides, the set of all combinations could encode only ... code allows one to predict the amino acid sequence of any sequenced gene.
