Sequence Primary Base Code Structure Polypeptide Determines Amino

Front Outline how the sequence of bases in DNA can code for the primary structure of a polypeptide chain.
Back How base sequence determines primary structure:
  • A sequence of 3 base pairs will code for one amino acid
  • Therefore the base pair sequence will determine the order of amino acids in protein synthesis and therefore determines the primary structure of a polypeptide
