what is the mrna sequence for this? 5'-ATCGCTAGATATATGCGCTCGTAACCTTCGC-3'

The mrna sequence for 5'- TCG CTA GAT ATA TGC GCT CGT AAC CTT CGC-3' is 3'- AGC GAU CUA UAU ACG CGA GCA UUG GAA GCG-5' This is due to the fact that in a mRNA sequence you will never find Thymine (T), therefore instead of Thymine, you will have Uracil (U). Please feel free to message me if you have any other question.

To transcribe the antisense strand of DNA (the one that reads from 5' -> 3') to mRNA, all you have to do is switch the Thymine nucleotide to a Uracil nucleotide, and the mRNA reads in the same 5' -> 3' direction!
