Question

which dna sequence, trna anticodon, and amino acid correspond to the mrna codon gau? use complementary base pairing and this codon chart to answer the question. write the amino acid using its three - letter abbreviation. write stop for a stop codon. dna sequence
mrna codon gau
trna anticodon
amino acid

Explanation:

Step1: Find complementary DNA sequence

DNA uses T instead of U; pair mRNA GAU:
DNA: $\text{CTA}$ (G↔C, A↔T, U↔A)

Step2: Find tRNA anticodon

tRNA pairs with mRNA (U↔A, A↔U, G↔C):
tRNA: $\text{CUA}$

Step3: Find amino acid via codon chart

Locate mRNA GAU (1st=G, 2nd=A, 3rd=U):
Amino acid: $\text{Asp}$

Answer:

DNA sequence: CTA
tRNA anticodon: CUA
amino acid: Asp
