You have a DNA strand with this nucleotide sequence TACCATGGCCGATACGAGGCCCTGAGC What is the other strand?
The Complementary strand would look like this TACCATGGCCGATACGAGGCCCTGAGC ATGGTACCGGCTATGCTCCGGGACTCG
Transcribe it TACCATGGCCGATACGAGGCCCTGAGC *ATGGTACCGGCTATGCTCCGGGACTCG* Using the 2nd strand as a template transcribe a mRNA
