does one base pairing from a dna's monomer form one gene or is it multiples of base pairings of a dna's molecule that form one gene
1 base pairing
im sry but u r wrong...about 1500 base pairing
Actually, you are wrong too. It depends on the gene. Some have more and some have less. It depends which gene you are looking for. Here is Genbank. It contains a list of most human genes. Look up the one you are looking for and it should tell you. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/
lol..i'll accept that i was wrong...yes you are right about the variations..pls if you may, i understand that the ribisomes read the base triplets at a time as the mrna strand slides through the ribosome but how does the the trna, carrying a paticular amino acid, know exactly where to drop in order to bind to the codon pair on the mrna strand? does the trna receive some sort of a signal frm the ribosome as it reads the mrna telling it exactly where to bind or does the trna use the amino acid its carrying to locate the codon pair since a particular codon can only correspond with a particular amino acid?
