Answer the next three questions using the following sequence…
Answer the next three questions using the following sequence and Codon table ABOVE. Shown below is a double-stranded bacterial (E. coli) DNA sequence coding for a short hypothetical protein. Both strands are shown; the top strand reads 5’ to 3’ left to right, while the bottom strand reads 5’ to 3’ right to left. The nucleotides are numbered 1 to 100. Transcription begins with and includes the bold and underlined C/G (top strand/bottom strand) at position 9. Translate this gene (hint: use mRNA from your transcription). What are the first 5 amino acids of the resulting polypeptide translated from this gene?
