Write out the complementary strand of DNA below the strand shown and be sure to label the 5’ and 3’ ends of the complementary strand.

Reading Frame 1:
5’-cgtatgctaataccatgttccgcgtataacccagccgccagttccgctggcggcatttta-3’
+
Reading Frame 2:
There are six possible reading frames in double-stranded DNA. Using the genetic code, translate all possible reading frames of this DNA sequence, keeping in mind the following rules.
+
Reading Frame 3:
In RNA, the T becomes a U, so everywhere you see a T in the sequence, read it as a U.
+
Reading Frame 4:
The genetic code is read in the 5’ to 3’ direction.
+
Reading Frame 5:
Use the single-letter abbreviations for the amino acids because that is what is commonly used by computer programs.
+
Reading Frame 6:
Wiki Hint: if you start your line with a single space character, it will appear in the grey box surrounded by the dashed line as shown above.
+
Which of the reading frames (if any) of the reading frames you translated is an open reading frame, i.e., does not contain a stop codon?
+
By convention, the top strand frames are called +1, +2, +3, reading 5' to 3' and the bottom strand frames are called -1, -2, -3, reading 5' to 3'.
