In the DNA sequence CTG AAT, describe the process of transcription and translation.
 
Transcription:

CTG AAT is turned to RNA and now it's

GUC TTU

Then, you look for the protein which matches this little sequence.
 
The mRNA sequence would be GAC UUA; these codons would encode the amino acids Aspardic acid and Leucine.

Thymine is not found in RNA and Uracil bonds with Adenine (and sometimes Guanine).
