Question

Ifthe sequence of one strand of DNA is written as follows:
5'-ATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGC-3'
Writedown the sequence of complementary strand in 5'→3'direction

Open in App

Solution

The DNA strands arecomplementary to each other with respect to base sequence. Hence, ifthe sequence of one strand of DNA is
5'-ATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGC − 3’
Then,the sequence of complementary strand in directionwill be
3'-TACGTACGTACGTACGTACGTACGTACG − 5’
Therefore,the sequence of nucleotides on DNA polypeptide in directionis
5'-GCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCATGCAT− 3’
