Question

transcribe this gene into mRNA
Gene(DNA) - A-C-G-T-A-G-C-T-G
mRNA-

Answer 1

I need to know which DNA strand you gave (coding/non‑template or template). Two possibilities:

- If A-C-G-T-A-G-C-T-G is the coding (non‑template) strand (5'→3'), mRNA = A C G U A G C U G (5'→3') → ACGUAGCUG.

- If A-C-G-T-A-G-C-T-G is the template strand (3'→5'), mRNA = U G C A U C G A C (5'→3') → UGCAUCGAC.

Rule used: DNA→RNA base pairing: A→U, T→A, C→G, G→C.
