If the mRNA strand is AUG CCC GGG what would the complementary tRNA strand look like?
|
|
AUG CCC GGG
|
|
|
GGG CCC AUG
|
|
|
UAC GGG CCC
|
|
|
TAC GGG CCC
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Methionine: the mRNA codon is AUG, and the tRNA anticodon is UAC.
Detailed explanation-2: -Bacillus subtilis tRNA(Pro) with the anticodon mo5UGG can recognize the codon CCC.
Detailed explanation-3: -This leads to a total of 10 codons in the mRNA sequence AUGGCAGUGCCA as AUG, UGG, GGC, GCA, CAG, AGU, GUG, UGC, GCC, CCA.
Detailed explanation-4: -Thus, if the base sequence in codon of mRNA is 5’-AUG-3’, the complementary anticodon will be3’-UAC-5’ or 5’-CAU-3’.
