PROTEIN SYNTHESIS PROBLEM SHEET Using the codon wheel and the following mRNA sequence, answer the following questions!
GUA AUG AAA CGC CUG GUA GAA GGU UGA UGC
1. List the DNA strand sequence from which the above mRNA strand was transcribed (please put a space after each set of three…makes my marking life easier!) [1]

2. List the complementary DNA sequence to what you just wrote for #1 (again, put a space after each set of three.) [1]

3. List the tRNA sequence that is complementary to the original mRNA strand given. [1]
CAU-UAC-UUU-GCG-GAC-CAU-CUU-CCA-ACU -ACG

4. Using the codon wheel, list the amino acid sequence of the protein coded for by the original mRNA strand given. [2]
Met-lys-arg-leu-val-glu-gly

5. What would be the effect on the translation of the original mRNA strand if base 4 was changed to U? [3]

6. What would be the effect on the translation of the original mRNA strand if base 9 was changed to G? [3]
7. What would be the effect on the translation of the original mRNA strand if base 16 was changed to a A? [3]

8a. What would be the effect on the translation of the original mRNA strand if base 7 was deleted? [3]

8b. What would the new amino acid sequence be? [2]

9. rule states A=T (or A=U) and C=G
from 5-8b im confused and need help, thank you
