I've pasted a hypothetical DNA template strand below. (The DNA template strand is
the strand that is transcribed to produce the primary transcript.) What mRNA
sequence would be transcribed from this template strand?
DNA Template: 3 - GTGATACCTATTAATTATTGCA - 5'
Hint: this question is easier than it seems. You can identify the correct mRNA
sequence without transcribing everything.
