Question The following DNA fragment contains the translation
initiation codon (start codon) of a gene. CGGAACATCGC GCCTTGTAGCG
The gene must be encoded in the… upper strand 5′ to 3′ upper
strand 3′ to 5′ lower strand 5′ to 3′ lower strand 3′ to 5′ several
possibilities I am quite confused with this question. Since the 5′
and 3′ ends and upper and lower strands of the DNA isn’t listed,
how can I tell whats going on? my professor says the correct answer
is upper strand 5′ to 3′, why?
