Accordng to your Genetic Code Sheet which of the following Amino acid sequesces corresponds to this mRNA strand?
CUC AAG UGC UUC
Use the chart below.

A) leu - glu - leu - val

B) leu - cys - pro - phe

C) lys - leu - cys - phe

D) leu - lys - cys - phe

Accordng to your Genetic Code Sheet which of the following Amino acid sequesces corresponds to this mRNA strand CUC AAG UGC UUC Use the chart below A leu glu le class=

Respuesta :

Answer: Option D) leu - lys - cys - phe

Explanation:

The messenger RNA, mRNA strand with

CUC AAG UGC UUC will be transcribed as leu - lys - cys - phe because according to the genetic code, the triplet codon

- CUC specify for the amino acid Leucine

- AAG specify for the amino acid Lysine

- UGC specify for the amino acid Cysteine

- UUC specify for the amino acid Phenylanine.

Thus, a polypeptide chain with four amino acids (tetrapeptide) is obtained from the mRNA molecule.
