Drag the correct amino acid abbreviations from the toolbox into the empty ovals to show the amino acid sequence that will be translated from this section of mRNA, beginning with the underlined base. Some ovals may not be filled.
Phe
Leu
His
Ser
Pro
Tyr
Cys
Trp
Arg
To identify the correct amino acid sequence from the mRNA, you’ll need to decode the mRNA sequence (which is not provided here) by using the genetic code. Each group of three nucleotides (codon) in the mRNA corresponds to a specific amino acid.
For instance:
– If the mRNA starts with the codon AUG, it codes for Methionine (Met).
– Other codons like UUU, UUC code for Phenylalanine (Phe).
Please check the mRNA sequence, identify the codons, and match them to the corresponding amino acids using the provided list. Each amino acid abbreviation you drag into the oval needs to align with its specific codon.
