AGGTATCGCAT is a sequence from the coding strand of a gene. What will be the corresponding sequence of the transcribed mRNA?

A

AGGUAUCGCAU

B

UGGTUTCGCAT

C

ACCUAUGCGAU

D

UCCAUAGCGUA

Step-by-Step Solution

the coding strand has the same sequence as the RNA (except that Thymine is replaced by Uracil) because the RNA is transcribed from the complementary template strand. Therefore, to determine the mRNA sequence from the coding strand, simply replace all instances of Thymine (T) with Uracil (U) .
