Concept explainers
To identify:
The sequence of base code and orientation of the complementary DNA strand from the given sequence in one strand of DNA molecule
Introduction:
Each DNA molecule consists of two strands of
Answer to Problem 8STP
The sequence of bases in the other strand would be 3’ACATCTGTGTTAATG 5’.
Explanation of Solution
Each DNA molecule consists of two strands. Both the strands have complementary base pairs.
It is given that the sequence in one strand is as follows:
5’TGTAGACACAATTAC 3’
The sequence in other strand would be complementary to the sequence in one strand. Its orientation will be opposite to the given strand. So it will be from 3’ to 5’.
Hence sequence in other strand would be 3’ACATCTGTGTTAATG 5’.
