<span>The anatomical part of the eye that's responsible for the production of tears is the lacrimal gland.

The lacrimal gland is located in the upper lateral part of the orbit, just laterally and above each eye. It can be divided into two portions. The orbital portion is the one that has </span>interlobular ducts that will connect with those of the other portion - palpebral portion - collecting the produced tears and leading them to the eye's surface.

How many possible open reading frames (frames without stop codons) are there that extend through the following sequence? 5'... C
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

There are 4 reading frames without stop codons.

Explanation:

1) To find the possible reading frames you need to separate your sequence in codons (trios)  for the 5'-> 3' sense, first, excluding the first nucleotide, then excluding 2 nucleotides and then not excluding nucleotides.

5'... C TTA CAG TTT ATT GAT ACG GAG AAG G... 3'  NO STOP CODON

5'... CT TAC AGT TTA TTG ATA CGG AGA AGG... 3'  NO STOP CODON

5'... CTT ACA GTT TAT <u>TGA</u> TAC GGA GAA GG... 3'

2)Then you find the complementary sequence (which you already have)

3'... GAA TGT CAA ATA ACT ATG CCT CTT CC... 5'

3'... GA ATG TCA AAT AAC TAT GCC TCT TCC... 5'

3'... G AAT GTC AAA TAA CTA TGC CTC TTC C... 5'

3) Next, you have to obtain the reverse complementary

CCT TCT CCG TAT CAA TAA ACT GTA AG NO STOP CODON

CC TTC TCC GTA TCA ATA AAC TGT AAG NO STOP CODON

C CTT CTC CGT ATC AAT AAA CTG <u>TAA</u> G

4)Now you need to find start (AGT in terms of DNA) and stop codons(<u>TAA</u>, <u>TAG,</u> <u>TGA</u>, also in terms of DNA), in 5->3 and de reverse complementary.

<em />

<em>As you can see, you have for open reading frames that lack of stop codon, unfortunately, they also lack of AGT, the start codon.</em>

I added a table where you can find thestart and stop codons as well as the proteins that they translate to in terms of RNA.

I hope you find this information interesting and useful, good luck!

You have learned that mutations can occur in dna sequences. are all mutations deadly?
Monica [59]
No, the vast majority of DNA mutations are not physically noticeable, and those that are noticeable physically are mainly cosmetic differences, such as a change in hair color, or heterochromia.
