Calculate the number of amino acids encoded by a DNA sequence of 36 nucleotides

Biology
1 answer:
ipn [44]2 years ago

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

Hi there,

Assuming this DNA strand is fully capable of being mature mRNA (5' m7G cap and PolyA tail), nucleotides lead to an mRNA codon, which is 3 nucleotides per codon. In turn, 1 codon leads to 1 amino acid. However, as a single strand, it must be capable of terminating translation, which always requires a stop codon, and thus 3 nucleotides. Hence, we must subtract this from the total amount of codons first.

Hence, only 11 amino acids will be coded by a single DNA strand 36 ncltd long.

thanks,
