Beadle and Tatum proposed the one gene-one enzyme concept.  This hypothesis could be restated in which of the following ways?

A) One DNA molecule contains the information to make one enzyme
B) A given sequence of DNA nucleotides contains the information to make one enzyme
C) Each gene contains the information to make one enzyme, one lipid, and one carbohydrate
D) Each gene is actually an enzyme that catalyzes the production of one protein
E) Each polypeptide is the result of the activity of one enzyme

A possible sequence of nucleotides in the DNA that would code for the polypeptide sequence –Phenylalanine, Leucine-Tyrosine-Cysteine- would be:

A) TTG-CTA-CAG-TAG
B) AAU-GAC-GUC-AUA
C) AUG-CTG-CAG-TAT
D) AAA-AAT-ATA-ACA
E) UGU-UAU-UUA-UUU

E) Each polypeptide is the result of the activity of one enzyme

A sequence of DNA nucleotides has the information for making one enzyme.

A possible sequence of nucleotides in the DNA that would code for the polypeptide sequence –Phenylalanine, Leucine-Tyrosine-Cysteine- would be:

A) TTG-CTA-CAG-TAG
B) AAU-GAC-GUC-AUA
C) AUG-CTG-CAG-TAT
D) AAA-AAT-ATA-ACA
E) UGU-UAU-UUA-UUU

Use this chart, can't be E B or C because that would suggest mRNA



Holler back if you need it.
