mRNA Sequence provided – Convert it into DNA
(Template/Anti-sense Strand) [Replace U with T]
To convert an mRNA sequence into DNA, we need to follow the rules of base pairing between DNA and RNA nucleotides.
First, we need to remember that RNA has the nucleotide Uracil (U) instead of Thymine (T) found in DNA.
Here’s an example of how to convert an mRNA sequence into DNA:
mRNA sequence: AUGGCCAUCAAGUAAUGGGCCCGAU
1. Start by writing down the mRNA sequence.
AUGGCCAUCAAGUAAUGGGCCCGAU
2. Replace all Uracil (U) nucleotides with Thymine (T).
AUGGCCAUCAAGTAAUGGGCCCGAU
3. Write down the DNA sequence by replacing each RNA base with its complementary base in DNA.
DNA sequence: TACCGGTAGTTCAATACCCGGGCTA
Therefore, the DNA sequence for the given mRNA sequence (AUGGCCAUCAAGUAAUGGGCCCGAU) is TACCGGTAGTTCAATACCCGGGCTA.
