The following sequence of double stranded DNA encodes a hypothetical protein called GEN in a bacteria. Transcription starts at a

nd includes the C-G base pair in Bold. The underlined T-A base pair indicates the transcription terminator. 3' -AAGCGGATACCTCCCAGTAGATGCTCCGGGGCTAGTGATTTCGAAC-5
A) What are the first 9 bases of the transcribed RNA? Be sure to label the 5' and 3" ends of the RNA 5' CCCCUAUGG3'
B) What are the first 4 amino acids of the subsequent polypeptide? Be sure to label the N- and C- termini. N-MET-GLU-GLY-HIS
C) How many amino acids long is the GEN polypeptide? 10 AMINO ACIDS
D) You identify a strain of bacteria containing a mutant tRNA that is capable of adding a tryptophan residue when it recognizes the stop codon UAG in the mRNA. The GEN polypeptide would be (longer, shorter, the same) in the presence of the mutart (nonsense suppressor) Trp tRNA?

Answer:

A) AUG GAG GGU

B) N-MET-GLU-GLY-HIS

C) 10 amino acids

D) The stop codon here is UAA, instead of UAG.  If a tryptophane residue is added where the stop codon is, the GEN polypeptide would be longer

Explanation:

First we must obtain the the complementary chain or mRNA

A) AUG start codon is complementary to DNA TAC triplet, and GAG is complementary to CTC, and GGU to CCA (running from left to right towards 5'DNA direction (AAGCGGATACCTCCCAGTAGATGCTCCGGGGCTAGTGATTTCGAAC-5)

B) TAC corresponds to Methionine, GAG to Glutamate, GGU to Glycine, and CAU to Histidine

C) UAA is the stop codon, that is complementary where the DNA triplet is ATT.  From AUG to UAA, we can have 10 amino acids transcribed

D) If a trp is included where the stop codon is UAA, then the mRNA would be longer with a consequent traduction of a longer GEN polypeptide

What is an example of cell theory and also a non example
Lisa [10]
Viruses are at the heart of this century-old debate. Viruses<span> are parasites that infect plants, animals, fungi and bacteria. They consist of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat and are unable to grow or reproduce without a host. The classification of viruses has confused scientists for nearly 100 years. Originally they were viewed as poisons. In fact, the word ''virus'' is Latin for ''poison.'' They have since been viewed as living creatures, then mere bio-chemical compounds, and, most recently, somewhere in between chemical compounds and lifeforms.</span>Non-cellular life<span> refers to organisms, such as viruses, that exist without any cells, and it is a very controversial topic. The cell theory, which is one of the fundamental tenets of biology, states that all living things are composed of cells and that cells are the basic units of life. So the idea that something can be considered alive without having cells is an issue that is up for debate.

what impacts is ocean acidification having (or expected to have) on marine life? include at least 3 organisms in your descriptio
Strike441 [17]

Life forms that depend on remineralize shells and skeletons will be harmed by ocean chemistry, as would species that are acid-sensitive and organisms higher in the food chain that eat these sensitive animals.

<h3>An organism is what, then?</h3>

An organism is a collection of molecules working together to form an more or less permanent together that demonstrates the characteristics of life. Definitions in dictionaries frequently use general terms like "any biological entity, such as a plant or animal reproduction."

<h3>What two kinds of organisms are there?</h3>

Prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms are the two primary categories. These type the cells that form the organism are the basis for this differentiation. Prokaryotic cells have a very basic, rudimentary structure without a nucleus. Additionally, membrane-bound organelles are absent.

Vaccines_______.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Stimulate an immune response

Explanation:

The vaccine is a preparation that contains a weakened or killed form of microorganism (or part of them) that stimulates the immune system to produce memory antibodies to recognize that microorganism in the future. After the body produces the memory antibodies, if a person is in contact with that microorganism the body recognized them as “strange” and the body response to killing them is faster before the infection. In some cases is necessary to apply various doses of the vaccine in a certain time to maintain the memory antibodies.
