  • There are six possible reading frames in double-stranded DNA. Using the genetic code, translate all possible reading frames of this DNA sequence.
    • mRNA sequence: 5'-cguaugcuaauaccauguuccgcguauaacccagccgccaguuccgcuggcggcauuuua-3'
  • 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'.
