Question

Given an amino acid sequence (amino acids linked together), can one predict a unique corresponding mRNA nucleotide sequence (nucleotides linked together)? Explain how you arrived at your answer and give an example to illustrate.

Answer 1

For this purpose, it is needed to define thenucleotide triplate for each of aminoacids using the geneticcode, replacing thymine uracil.
For instance, the aminoacid sequence: SerPheLysMet -> mRNA UCU UUU AAA AUG
