AGGTATCGCAT is a sequence from the coding strand of a gene. What will be the corresponding sequence of the transcribed mRNA ?
ACCUAUGCGAU
UGGTUTCGCAT
AGGUAUCGCAU
UCCAUAGCGUA
As we learnt in
DNA and RNA components -
Cytosine is common for both DNA and RNA and Thymine is present in DNA.
- wherein
Uracil is present in RNA at the place of thymine.
Coding strand and mRNA has same nucleotide sequence except, ‘T’ – Thymine is replaced by ‘U’–Uracil in mRNA.
Option 1)
ACCUAUGCGAU
This is incorrect.
Option 2)
UGGTUTCGCAT
This is incorrect.
Option 3)
AGGUAUCGCAU
This is correct.
Option 4)
UCCAUAGCGUA
This is incorrect.
