11 When translating the DNA make sure you start at the 5' end of the mRNA transcript as this is
where the ribose attaches the mRNA and begins the translation process
DNA sample 3'AGATACTAGGACS'
mRNA = 3
CODE
POST TRANSCRIPTIONAL MODIFICATION
Now you must cut out the introns and leave only exons
12,Onee you get the mRNA transept, cut out codons 10-15 and eadame 43-48 and then decode

15.In the actual translation of mRNA all messages must start with methionine and all complete
‘messages must end with a stop, just as a sentence ends with a period. In this example there will
bbe no spaces between the words so you will have to interpret, Also for this question, you are
given the DNA fragment in three segments. First determine the sequence of the fragments and
place you answer in the blank. Bm
