Question

8. This segment of RNA from the middle of an mRNA.
5'-UAGUCUAGGCACUGA-3'
Translate the segment of mRNA above using the genetic code provided.

I think I did this cell biology problem correctly but want to be sure. Assistance would be appreciated.

The Genetic Code UUU Phe (F) UCU Ser (S UAU Tyr m UGU Cys (C UUA Leu (L) UCA UAA Stop UGA Stop UUG UCG UAG Stop UGG Trp (W) CUU Leu (L) CCU Pro (P) CAU His (H) CGU Arg (R) CAC CGC CUA CAA Gln (Q) CGA CAG AUU lle (D ACU Thr AAU Asn (N) AGU Ser (S) AUC AGC AUA AAA Lys (K) AGA Arg (R) ACA AUG Met (M) ACG AGG GUU Val (V) GCU Ala (A) GAU Asp (D) GGU Gly (G) GAC G GUA GAA Glu (E) GGA GCA GCG GUG GAG

Explanation / Answer

UAG=STOP

UCU->Ser

AGG->arg

CAC->His

UGA->stop

UAGUCUAGGCACUGA-> 5'-stop-Ser-ARG-His-stop-3'
