Codon-Anticodon Recognition: Base-Pairing Possibilities

(Integrates with Chapter 11.) Draw base-pair structures for (a) a G:C base pair. (b) a C:G base pair. (C) a G:U base pair, and (d) a U:G base pair. Note how these various base pairs differ in the potential hydrogen-bonding patterns they present within the major groove and minor groove of a double-helical nucleic acid.

Analyzing mRNA Sequences 1. Analyze the following amino acid sequence and write down a potential mRNA sequence from which this sequence might have been translated. Use the codon table in your book to determine a possible mRNA sequence. Amino Acid Sequence 1: H,N*-Methionine-Valine-Histidine-Leucine- Threonine-Proline-Glutamic Acid-Glutamic Acid- COO 2. (a) Consider Amino Acid Sequence 2. How is Amino Acid Sequence 2 different from Amino Acid Sequence 1? Amino Acid Sequence 2: H,N*-Methionine-Valine-Histidine-Leucine- Threonine-Proline-Valine-Glutamic Acid-CO (b) Write a potential mRNA sequence for Amino Acid sequence 2, using the same codons for any given amino acid if it is present in both sequences.
5’-GGC TAC GTA ACT TGA TAA-3’ (a) mRNA codons that are transcribed from the DNA (b) tRNA anticodons for each of the mRNA codons (c) The sequence of amino acids in the resulting polypeptide. (d) Provide the sequence of another possible DNA strand that will lead to synthesis ofthe same polypeptide.
