For the DNA sequence of TACTTCTTCAAGACT, what information is contained in the genetic code for the first and last codon? Please be specific.
I appreciate any help I can get.. Thank you!
tht sounds reli hard
How old r u ??
That seem's too hard 2 learn xxxxxxxxx
'chloe x' if you don't know the answer then why bother answering.
I'm sorry I don't have an answer, try searching on google.
To determine the information contained in the genetic code for the first and last codon of the given DNA sequence (TACTTCTTCAAGACT), we need to translate the DNA sequence into its corresponding RNA sequence and then apply the genetic code to identify the specific amino acids represented by the codons.
Here's a step-by-step guide to finding the information:
1. Transcription: First, we need to transcribe the DNA sequence into RNA. In transcription, DNA's T (thymine) is replaced by U (uracil), as RNA uses uracil instead of thymine. So, the DNA sequence TACTTCTTCAAGACT would be transcribed into the RNA sequence UACUUCUUCAAGACU.
2. Codon Identification: The RNA sequence is read in groups of three bases known as codons. We can now split the RNA sequence into codons: UAC, UUC, UUC, AAG, ACU.
3. Applying the Genetic Code: Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid or a stop signal. Using the standard genetic code, we can find the information contained in the genetic code.
The first codon, UAC, encodes the amino acid tyrosine (Tyr). The last codon, ACU, encodes the amino acid threonine (Thr).
Therefore, the information contained in the genetic code for the first codon (TACTTCTTCAAGACT) is that it codes for the amino acid tyrosine (Tyr), and the information contained in the genetic code for the last codon is that it codes for the amino acid threonine (Thr).
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
