What is the term for a 3-nucleotide sequence on mRNA that codes for an amino acid?
the three nucleotides on a mRNA that codes for a amino acid is called a codon
What is the amino acid to uua?
what is the true amino acid is that amino acid aau?
What codon must every mRNA begin with?
They all begin with AUG, which is the start codon.
Do stop codon have an amino acid?
A stop codon (UGA, UAA, UAG) only codes for a stop. No amino acid results from a stop codon.
What are the amino acids on the codon table?
Each codon codes for only one amino acid, or a codon is a start or stop codon, but no codon codes for more than one amino acid.
What is the first codon in every mRNA?
AUG, which codes for the amino acid methionine.
What codon codes for amino acids phenylalanine did scientist find?
There are two codons that code for the amino acid phenylalanine: UUU and UUC.
The first codon to be deciphered was?
UUU and it encodes phenylalanine
Can an amino acid be specified by more than one codon?
Yes, each amino acid has several codons that correspond to it. Please see the related link for a chart which shows this. For example, UUU and UUC both code for Phenylalanine. However, if you are asking if a codon can code for more than one amino acid, the answer is no (but there are exceptions). This means that UUU codes for Phenylalanine - not for any other amino acids. Codons are made in sets of three bases to match the anticodons in corresponding sets of three bases.
What is the term for a 3-nucleotide sequence on mRNA that codes for an amino acid?
the three nucleotides on a mRNA that codes for a amino acid is called a codon
What does each codon code for?
Each codon codes for a specific amino acid.
What is the ACA codon?
The codon ACA codes for the amino acid Threonine(Thr).
What is the amino acid to uua?
what is the true amino acid is that amino acid aau?
What codon must every mRNA begin with?
They all begin with AUG, which is the start codon.
Is tryptophan the starting codon for mRNA?
No, tryptophan is an amino acid, not a codon. The start codon is AUG, which codes for the amino acid methionine.
What factor changes the type of protein a gene codes for?
well the gene code itself, each codon (and anti-codon) codes for different proteins
For any codon there can only be one?
There is only one corresponding amino acid for each codon. Each codon codes specifically for one amino acid (however, an amino acid can be coded for by several different codons). For example: CAU codes for Histamine (and not any other amino acid) But, CAC also codes for Histamine.
