This sequence given is of one strand of eukaryotic DNA containing a hypothetical gene. The base that is first (at the 5' end) in the sequence is at position -25. The translational start site is the first initiating codon encountered after the transcriptional start. This gene has three exons. The last base of the first exon is the A at position +30; the first base of the second exon is the C at position +62; the last base of the second exon is the A at position +82; the first base of the third exon is the G at position +118; and the last base of the third exon is for you to determine. Determine, and show, the sequence of the polypeptide produced by this gene in this format: Met-Thr-Trp-Tyr-Val etc. 5'-TATATACGTC CTATCGATGC ATCGTGTACG TAGCTAGGGG ATGCATGAAG TCACAGTAGC TAGCTATGGC TGATCGATCG TTGTGGCTTA AATATTGCGC TGGACTAGGA AAAGCTCGCA GGTACCCGAT CGATCCCGTG GAGTTCCAAG TTAGGATCTA CTTTAGCTAG TTTTAGCGGA ATAAAGATCG ATTATAGCTG AGAGATAAGC GTGGGTTGAT GATCGTAGCT AGCTAGCTAG CTAGCATCGA-3'
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
