What is a set of three nucleotides on a tRNA molecule that is complementary to an mRNA?

A codon. It codes for an amino acid.
With all the different possible sequences of 3 nucleotides, this makes 61 different tRNA (because 3 codon types are used for start and/or stop codons). Even though there are 61 combinations, there are only 20 amino acids, so some tRNA, even though they have different codon, carry the same amino acid.
DNA is transcribed into mRNA. mRNA is filtered through the ribosome for translation with tRNA. The correct tRNA which matches the mRNA adds its amino acid to the chain to form a protein.

What is three nucleotides on transfer RNA that are complementary to the three nucleotides on messenger RNA?
There are four nucleotides in tRNA that are complementary to the four nucleotides on mRNA. Both types of RNA contain the nucleotides adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil. In both types of RNA adenine is complementary to uracil, and cytosine is complementary to guanine.
What is the combination of three mRNA nucleotides?
Three sequential mRNA nucleotides are called a codon, which codes for one amino acid.
How do you make a complementary RNA?
cDNA of the gene/mRNA for which you want to make complementary RNA is cloned into special plasmid vectors that have promoters at either ends of the multiple cloning sites (MCS). Using RNA polymerase and nucleotides you can now synthesize RNA complementary to the original mRNA. This is called complementary RNA (cRNA).
How is the placement of the amino acid during translation is determined by the?
During the translation process, the translation machinery reads the sequence of nucleotides present on the mRNA. The sequence of nucleotides on mRNA is divided in codons, these are set of three nucleotides. There are total 64 codons that contiguously present on mRNA. corresponding to each mRNA codon there is a tRNA that has an anticodon loop that has three nucleotide complementary to the codon. Now Anticodons bind to their specific amino acid called as the charging of the tRNA and carry to the mRNA that is bound to ribosome. The catalytic activity of the 16s rRNA leds to the formation of peptide bond between the coming and the already added amino acid.
How is dna made into mRNA?
DNA is not made into mRNA, it is transcribed by mRNA. The DNA molecule is split into two strands by the enzyme helicase. One strand is the sense strand and the other is the anti-sense strand. Then mRNA nucleotides pair with their complimentary DNA bases on the antisense strand. The enzyme RNA polymerase causes the mRNA nucleotides to bond with one another, forming a strand of mRNA.

Series of three bases on tRNA that code for an amino acid?
tRNA contains an anticodon that is complementary to the codon of mRNA.
How many nucleotides would it take to construct the mRNA coding strand of the β-subunit of the hemoglobin A molecule?
441 nucleotides
What is the trna molecule that will be produced for a t t c g a c c t a c g?
The anticodon of a tRNA molecule has only three nitrogen bases. The anticodon is complementary to a codon of mRNA at the ribosome. The tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid from the cytoplasm to its complementary mRNA codon, where it will be incorporated into the new protein being made.
What is the form of RNA that is transcribed from DNA?
A. rRNA Type of RNA molecule transcribed from a DNA template B. codon Sequence of three nucleotides on a messenger RNA molecule C. tRNA RNA component of ribosomes D. anticodon Connects mRNA codon to an amino acid E.mRNA Sequence of three nucleotides on a transfer RNA molecule
Cluster of three nucleotides?
A cluster of three nucleotides is called a 'codon' - However, the term is only really used to refer to refer to a 3 nucleotide sequence on an mRNA molecule. Codons provide a means by which charged tRNA molecules can specifically add amino acids to a growing polypeptide chain. tRNA molecules have the complementary 3 nucleotide sequence (anticodon) that allow the specific recognition.
Why does a particular tRNA molecule become temporarily attached only to a specific triplet of mRNA?
Each tRNA molecule contains a specific three-base segment (anticodon) which binds to the complementary codon in mRNA,and a binding site for a specific amino acid.
