An mRNA has the sequence 5’ GCCACCAUGGGGGGAAGGUGAAGACC 3’.

(3 pts.) Write the sequence of template and nontemplate strands of the gene encoding this mRNA. Clearly indicate which is which and include 5’ and 3’ polarity. Change the font (where it says paragraph above) to "preformatted" to get a constant-width font the will make your sequence more readable.
(3 pts) Use the genetic code to write the N to C sequence of the protein specified by this RNA. Remember that the Kozak consensus sequence is GCCACCAUGG.

(8 pts) Explain the role or significance of each of the following in the process of translation:

5’ cap:
Kozak consensus sequence:
Stop codon:
Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase:

(6 pts) What would be the specific consequence of each of the following mutations in translation associated molecules?

Mutation in release factor causes it to bind the sequence UUU
Loss-of-function mutation in the large ribosomal subunit rRNA ribozyme
Mutation in initiation factors that causes them to no longer bind the small ribosomal subunit
