i posted a pic of the assignment

Question needs to be stated.

i posted a pic.. im sorry this was my first time posting on here!

No worries, could you copy and paste the written part of the question?

"What is the sequence of DNA strand being synthesized during sequencing?
Express your answer as a sequence of nucleotides separated by dashes from 5' to 3'. Example: 5'-T-C-A-G-3'

Thanks, I've attached what I think is probably correct. Review it, and let me know.

I just tried that for Part A and it didnt work. This is what I entered.
 
5'-C-G-A-A-T-C-G-T-A-G-C-G-T-A-G-T-C-A-T-3'

Sorry to hear that... What I did was go down the columns and write the sequence.

It could have also been the opposite:

G --> C
C --> G
T --> A
A --> T

Or, you mixed up the 3' and 5', perhaps switch them.

Could you update us if whether bio_man was right?

Thanks

Thank you!

For the DNA strand being synthesized during sequencing, the gel is read from bottom to top and gives a 5’-3’ strand sequence.
Part A answer is 5'-T-A-C-T-G-A-T-G-C-G-A-T-G-C-T-A-A-G-C-3'.

than it's probably a no ? lol

5'-T-C-G-A-T-C-T-G-C-A-T-G-G-A-T-C-C-G-A-3'
IS THE CORRECT ANSWER FOR PART A

3'-A-G-C-T-A-G-A-C-G-T-A-C-C-T-A-G-G-C-T-5'
IS THE CORRECT ANSWER TO PART B

finally :p
