I showed you, how to do it, I won't tell you the answer :roll:

What do you think?

CUA - GAU
CUG- GAC
CUU - GAA
CUC - GAG
UUA - AAU
UUG - AAC

What I have done wrong in this problem?

I said REVERSE complement, so you have to turn it around

so:
CUA -> UAG
CUG -> CAG
etc.

Why do you have to reverse it?

by **JackBean** » Tue Aug 31, 2010 3:33 pm

because the triplets bind with anticodons in reversed order
