The DNA STRAND IS 3’ TAC-AGC-ACT-CAG-TCA 5’ and Non-template strand = 5' - ATG-TCG-TGA-GTC-AGT - 3' .
If on the non-coding strand of DNA there is suddenly one T base that sneaks into the 4th sequence (from the left), or causes a mutation, then how will the RNA be formed and the chain arrangement of the amino acids produced by this mutation?
4th sequence (from the left) should be = TCG right?
The sequence below shows one strand of DNA. Parts of the sequence are in capital letters to help you identify important features - capitalization does not affect the nucleotide indicated.

a) Underneath that strand, write the sequence of the strand of DNA it would be paired with in a double-stranded helix. Use the single letter code A-adenosine, G-guanosine, T-thymine, C-cytosine, and U-uracil, and remember to label the 5' and 3' ends
b) Next, write the sequence of a possible mRNA transcript of the double-stranded DNA above. Remember that an mRNA must be translatable by a ribosome into a protein. Be sure to indicate 5' and 3' ends
c) Using the genetic code at the end, translate your mRNA into the appropriate protein. Write the amino acid sequence of the protein using the single letter amino acid code (also at the end) below the mRNA sequence in (b) and label the amino and carboxy terminals
d) Suppose the bracketed bold [a] were…
Given this sequence (of course the DNA is double stranded, but I’m only showing one strand), will it tend to cause a deletion to form, or an inversion? Diagram how it (either the deletion or inversion) will happen.
