Part of a DNA template of sequence GTTAGTCTGTGGGCT corresponds to the amino acid sequence

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The DNA template sequence GTTAGTCTGTGGGCT is transcribed into the mRNA sequence CUAACAGACACCCGA, which codes for the amino acid sequence glutamine-serine-aspartic acid-threonine-arginine (abbreviated as Gln-Ser-Asp-Thr-Arg). Therefore, the correct answer is D. Option E is incorrect because it represents a different amino acid sequence. Option A and B are incorrect because they represent the DNA template sequence instead of the amino acid sequence. Option C is incorrect because it contains an incorrect codon (CAU instead of CUA) which would result in a different amino acid (histidine instead of glutamine).
