Question

Suppose that a nucleic acid polymer consisting of 50% A and 50% G in randomly order is used as a template for protein synthesis in a cell-free system. Using the Table below pick the 4-8 amino acids encoded by the resulting codons and choose the corresponding probability (frequency) that each of these amino acids would be incorporated into the corresponding polypeptide. The final TOTAL probability/frequency for the incorporation of the specified amino acid must add up to 100%.

Can someone explain how to solve this problem?

Frequency Alanine Arginine Aspartate 0 0 :0 Asparagine 0 Cysteine Glutamate Glutamine Glycine Histidine Isoleucine Leucine 0 0 0 0 0 0 Lysine Methionine 0 Phenylalanine 0 Proline Serine Threonine Tryptophan Tyrosine Valine TOTAL 0 0 0 0 100o
