Question

This rna strand will hybridize(anneal, base pair) on itself in a specific region. Draw the annealed product after hybridization.

5'-GCUCGCACAUCAGGUACUCCUGAU-3'

Answer 1

The hybridization of the RNA (ribonucleic acid) is defined as the formation of a double stranded structure from the single strand. In the RNA strand, there are four bases, adenine, guanine, uracil and cytosine. adenine pairs with uracil and guanine pairs with cytosine.

So, the given sequence on hybridization form a bond with the complementary base and result in the formation of the complementary strand.

The strands form after hybridization is given below:
