To determine the amino acid sequence from the provided mRNA sequence (GUACCUGCG), we first need to translate the mRNA into its corresponding amino acids using the genetic code.
-
Divide the mRNA sequence into codons (groups of three nucleotides):
- GUACCUGCG → GUA CCU GCG
-
Translate each codon into an amino acid:
- GUA → Valine (Val)
- CCU → Proline (Pro)
- GCG → Alanine (Ala)
Thus, the amino acid sequence corresponding to the mRNA sequence GUACCUGCG is:
Val-Pro-Ala (or V-P-A for short).
