DNA to mRNA Converter

Transcribe a DNA coding strand into mRNA.

Calculated Output

mRNA sequence AUGCGUACG

Length (bases) 9

Formula: replace every T with U (coding strand → mRNA)

Step-by-Step Breakdown

1. Values used:

3. mRNA sequence = AUGCGUACG

4. Length = 9bases

The math behind it

mRNA matches the coding strand but uses uracil (U) instead of thymine (T), so every T becomes U. Non-ACGT characters are ignored.

ATGCGTACG → AUGCGUACG.

Template strand?

mRNA is complementary to the template strand, which equals the coding strand with T→U.
