Abstract
The major problem being faced by biologists and researchers is huge amounts of raw data but with a lack of means to effectively use this data. DNA is the main building block of a living organism. The information stored in DNA is used to make a more trasisent, single standard polynucleotide called RNA (ribonucleic acid). The process of making a RNA copy of a Gene is called transcription and is accomplished through the enzymatic activity of an RNA polymerase. There is a one to one correspondence between the nucleotide used to make RNA (G, A, U, C) and the nucleotide sequence in DNA (G, A, T, C respectively).The next process of converting that information from nucleotide sequence in RNA to the mRNA. The sequence after skipping the intron part is m-RNA which contains exons only. The next process of converting that information from nucleotide sequence in mRNA to the amino acid sequence that make protein is called translation.? In the present work, the process of conceptual translation of gene sequences is implemented corresponding to amino acid sequence. The mRNA to Protein Sequence Conversion is done by dividing the sequence of mRNA into groups of three nucleotides called codons. These codons are replaced by corresponding amino acid combinations, which gives the resultant protein. All the possible amino acid combinations are displayed.
