Using the codon chart, which mRNA codon codes for the amino acid methionine in eukaryotes?

The six nucleotides preceding the start codon and the first nucleotide after the start codon in eukaryotes exhibit strong sequence conservation as determined by the percentages of nucleotides in the  to  positions and the  position (see Problem 34). Use the data given in the table for Problem 35 to determine the seven nucleotides that most commonly surround the start in vertebrates.

The two gels illustrated contain dideoxynucleotide DNA-sequencing information for a wild-type segment and mutant segment of DNA corresponding to the N-terminal end of a protein. The start codon and the next five codons are sequenced.

Determine the amino acid sequences translated from these mRNAs.

Write out the mRNA sequences encoded by each template strand, and underline the start codons.
