Q23 of 71 Page 36

If the sequence of nitrogen bases of the coding strand of DNA in a transcription unit is: 5' - A T G A A T G - 3', the sequence of bases in its RNA transcript would be;

Coding Strand :5' - A U G A A U G - 3’


Template strand: 3’ T A C T T A C-5’ ((Adenosine bonds with thymine, and Guanine bonds with Cytosine).


RNA Transcript: 5’ A U G A A U G-3’ (Adenosine bonds with Uracil and Cytosine bond with guanine)
