Algorithmic Thinking in Bioinformatics, Quiz 1
Scientists found an alien world where life follows the same central dogma principle. Their DNA consists of 5 different types of nucleotides (and so is their RNA) and amino acids are generated using codons of length 4. Also, due to some chemical structure of the nucleotides, any nucleotide can occur exactly once in a codon. Calculate the maximum number of unique amino acids that be generated.
Enter the value as a single integer.

Calculate the maximum number of unique amino acids that be generated.\ *Enter the value as a single integer.* Consider a GRN system with four genes: $g_1, g_2, g_3, g_4$. The adjacency matrix that represents the GRN is given below. How many genes are regulating $g_4$? | | $g_1$ | $g_2$ | $g_3$ | $g_4$ | |---|---|---|---|---| | $g_1$ | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | | $g_2$ | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | | $g_3$ | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | | $g_4$ | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Table 1: The GRN network *Enter the value as a single integer.* Figure from the original question paper
