  • DNA to RNA Sequence Transversion: Find the RNA Complement
    The corresponding RNA sequence for the DNA sequence CGTAtcga would be: GCUAAGCU.

    Here's why:

    * Uracil replaces Thymine: In RNA, Uracil (U) replaces Thymine (T).

    * Matching bases: DNA and RNA have complementary base pairing:

    * Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G)

    * Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C)

    * Adenine (A) pairs with Uracil (U) in RNA (instead of Thymine)

    Therefore, the RNA sequence is created by:

    * Replacing the T in the DNA sequence with U.

    * Matching the remaining bases according to the pairing rules above.
