Detailed explanation-1: -The complementary DNA strand of the sequence ATGC will be TACG.
Detailed explanation-2: -The RNA nucleotide sequence is complementary to that of DNA template strand except the presence of uracil in place of thymine. As we know that adenine base pairs with thymine and guanine with cytosine; the RNA sequence of given DNA strand would be UACGGAUCCUG.
Detailed explanation-3: -The sequence of coding strand of DNA in a transcription unit is 5′−GGAATTCCG−3′.
Detailed explanation-4: -During transcription, if the nucleotide sequence of the DNA strand that is being coded is ATACG, then the nucleotide sequence in the mRNA would be UAUGC because in RNA, the bases are adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), or uracil (U).
