Question 6

(Multiple Choice)

Answer the questions below based on this RNA sequences: 5'-AUGAUGAUGAUG-3'

This RNA transcript was generated using a synthetic DNA template. The letters B, D, E, F, G, and H have been selected to represent different amino acids. Assume that each codon is a different amino acid

-Imagine that the genetic code were read in an overlapping fashion,using three nucleotides to specify each amino acid (i.e.,the sequence above would be read: AUG-UGA-GUA and so on).Which of the following polypeptides would be obtained by translating the sequence above?


A)B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B.
B)B-D-B-D-B-D-B-D-B-D.
C)B-D-E-B-D-E-B-D-E-B.
D)B-D-E-F-G-B-D-E-F-G.
E)B-D-E-F-B-B-D-E-F-B.
