2133 how many amino acids are coded for mRNA strand of 6399 nucleotides.
Step-by-step explanation:
mRNA is a product of transcription process in the nucleus of the cell.
mRNA is formed by using the template or coding strand of the gene sequence that is DNA.
The triplet codon on the mRNA transcript is read by anticodon of tRNA and suitable amino acid is brought for the process of translation. In this process primary protein structure is formed.
The triplet sequence coding for amino acid can be checked from Genetic code table.
Thus total number of nucleotides in mRNA is 6399
to know the number of amino acids the total will be divided by 3 since 3 sequences code for 1 amino acid.
so,
2133 amino acids long primary protein will be formed.
Although there are non-coding regions in the mRNA as introns which are spiced off before translation, considering that given mRNA contains only exons.
