Concept explainers

Coding Strand of DNA
When pointing to DNA transcription, the coding strand is found to be the DNA strand whose base sequence is indistinguishable from the base sequence of the RNA transcript developed. It is this strand that comprises the codons, while the non-coding strand …
Nucleotide
Both DNA and RNA are composed of organic molecules known as nucleotides. Hence, nucleotides are known as the basic building blocks of nucleic acids. These substances play a role in various processes such as cell signalling, enzyme reactions, metabolism, …
Structure of Cytosine
Cytosine is among the five primary nitrogenous bases of which DNA and RNA and are being used in storage and transportation of genetic makeup within a cell. Adenine, guanine, thymine as well as uracil are the remaining four nucleobases.

Chapter 28, Problem 28.34P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The codons for the amino acids Aspartic acid and Glutamic acid has to be compared.

Concept Introduction:

The mRNA strand consists of genetic information in the form of nucleotides.  The codons translate the genetic information present on the mRNA strand, with the help of triplet codons which codes for amino acids.  In mRNA the nucleotides present are Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C) and Uracil (U).
