Question

here is a portion of a hypothetical dna sequence: 3' t t c g a a c c g a g 5' suppose this sequence is part of the template strand of a gene. the sequence of the rna transcript produced from this part of the gene would be:

Answer 1

sequence of the RNA transcript produced from this part of the gene would be:

5' A A G C U U G G C U C 3'

Step-by-step explanation:

The RNA transcript is produced by transcribing the DNA sequence into RNA using the enzyme RNA polymerase. During transcription, RNA polymerase reads the DNA sequence and uses it as a template to synthesize the complementary RNA sequence. Because RNA is single-stranded and DNA is double-stranded, the RNA transcript is complementary to the non-template strand of the DNA, not the template strand.

In the given DNA sequence, the non-template strand would be:

3' A A C G T T G G C T G 5'

The RNA transcript is produced by transcribing this non-template strand, so the resulting RNA sequence would be the complementary sequence:

5' A A G C U U G G C U C 3'

This RNA transcript would be the sequence of the RNA produced from the given DNA sequence.
