An Antisense RNA Is an RNA That Base - Pairs with an mRNA and Prevents Its Translation
Question:
An Antisense RNA Is an RNA That BasePairs with an mRNA and Prevents Its Translation One strategy to thwart the deleterious effects of genes activated in disease states such as cancer is to generate antisense RNAs in affected cells. Suppose the transcription of a canceractivated gene yielded an mRNA whose sequence included the segmentUACGGUCUAAGCUGA. Which of the following is the correct nucleotide sequence n for the template strand in a DNA duplex that would code for an antisense RNA? Hint: Recall that the DNA strand that is not copied by RNA polymerase during transcription has a nucleotide sequence identical to that of the RNA being synthesizedexcept T residues are found in the DNA strand at sites where U residues occur in the RNA
