Condons
No, "aug" is not a stop codon in the genetic code. It is actually the start codon that signals the beginning of protein synthesis.
Stop codons (also known as nonsense codons) do not code for amino acids. These include UAG, UAA, and UGA. When a stop codon is encountered during translation, it signals the termination of protein synthesis.
Leucine is encoded by six different codons in the genetic code: UUA, UUG, CUU, CUC, CUA, and CUG. These codons correspond to the amino acid leucine during protein synthesis. The redundancy in codons for leucine is an example of the genetic code's degeneracy, where multiple codons can specify the same amino acid.
Anti-codons.
The specific sequences of nucleotides that serve as the stop codons in the genetic code are UAA, UAG, and UGA. The start codon is AUG.
The anticodons on tRNA corresponding to the mRNA codons would be UCU-CCA-GCU. This is because they are complimentary to the mRNA codons based on the genetic code.
UAA, UAG, UGA are the 3 stop codons in the genetic code. Stop codons don't code for an amino acid because they cannot be recognized by a tRNA.
In the genetic code, there are three stop codons: UAA, UAG, and UGA. These codons signal the termination of protein synthesis during translation, indicating that the ribosome should stop adding amino acids to the growing polypeptide chain. Each of these stop codons does not code for any amino acid, effectively marking the end of the protein-coding sequence.
The stop codon in E. coli's genetic code serves as a signal to the cell to stop protein synthesis, ensuring that the protein is made correctly and functions properly. This helps regulate the process of gene expression and prevents the production of incomplete or faulty proteins.
