What is the RNA sequence corresponding to the DNA sequence T A G, and what is the correct amino acid?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking how to transcribe a sequence of DNA to RNA and then determine the corresponding amino acid. Specifically, it provides a DNA sequence and requests the user to fill in the RNA sequence and identify the correct amino acid based on it.
Answer
RNA: U A G, Amino acid: STOP
The final answer is RNA: U A G, Amino acid: STOP.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is RNA: U A G, Amino acid: STOP.
More Information
The DNA sequence TAG translates to the RNA sequence UAG. UAG is a stop codon, indicating the end of protein synthesis.
Tips
A common mistake is to forget that thymine (T) in DNA is replaced by uracil (U) in RNA.
