The corresponding codon for mRNA is GUC.
The instructions of the cellular process are encoded in the form of triplets of bases called codons.
- The process of transcription forms the transcript of the DNA molecule in the form of an RNA called mRNA.
- The sequence of the mRNA is determined by the sequence of the bases of DNA and the new nucleotides are added in accordance with the Chargaff rule.
- The Chargaff rule suggests that A will bind T (U in case of RNA) and G will bind C.
- Since the DNA codon is the 5' CAG 3' the nucleotides added will be in sequence 3' GUC 5'.
Thus, A triplet of bases in a template strand of DNA is 5' CAG 3' then the corresponding codon for mRNA- 3' GUC 5'.
