You perform a cell free translation experiment like Nirenbergand Matthaei, but you forget to write down what nucleotides youadded to make the mRNA. You precipitate the translated polypeptidesand measure the relative amount of radiolabeled amino acidsincorporated into them. You get 25% proline, 25% threonine, 12.5%glutamine, 12.5% lysine, 12.5% asparagine, and 12.5% histidine.What nucleotides and in what % did you add to make the mRNA? Pleaseexplain step by step.
Why is the answer 50% C and 50% A?
