Question:
1)Within a long mRNA molecule, there is a codon near the middle that has the sequence 5' - UGG - 3'. If there was a point mutation that resulted in the mRNA codon being changed to 5' - UGC - 3', what kind of mutation would this result in?
2)
The noncoding strand of a segment of DNA has the following sequence:
5' - CTG - 3'
What amino acid would be encoded by this segment?
Write your answer out using the 3-letter abbreviation. For example, if your answer was "Phe" you would write: Phe.
3)
The non-coding strand of a segment of DNA has the following sequence:
5' - CTG - 3'
What is the sequence of the tRNA anticodon that would bind to the mRNA produced from this DNA sequence? Ignore wobble rules (if you are familiar with this concept) for this question.
Write your answer out in the 5' to 3' direction using only 3 letters. For example, if your answer was 5' - GCA - 3' you would write: GCA.
