Which strand is complementary to the following DNA sequence:ATG-CCC-AAT
|
|
TAC-GGG-TTA
|
|
|
UAC-GGG-UUA
|
|
|
ATC-GGG-AAT
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Based on complementary base pairing rules, T pairs with A, whereas C pairs with G. Hence, the complementary sequence for 3’ ATGGCT 5’ starting from the 5’ end is 5’ TACCGA 3’.
Detailed explanation-2: -Complementary DNA (cDNA) is a DNA copy of a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule produced by reverse transcriptase, a DNA polymerase that can use either DNA or RNA as a template.
Detailed explanation-3: -ATGGCTTGA…. 5’? Explanation: The complementary of A is T and for G is C, therefore the complementary sequence should be …. TACCGAACT….
Detailed explanation-4: -Solution : (c) Adenine always pairs with thymine and cytosine always pairs with guanine. Thus, sequence of bases on complementary strand would be TACGTACGT.
