Codons are three bases on mRNA which go to the ribosome which translates into amino acids. The amino acids are attached to tRNA which has the anticodon on it which will bind to the codon on the mRNA. This is how the ribosome picks out the correct amino acid. the tRNA with the anti codon just binds to the codon and the amino acids start binding together via peptide bonds.
What else can I help you with?
Why is the anticodon AGA complementary to the codon UCU?
The only base-pairs that are possible are: Adenine - Uracil (for RNA, since the question refers to codon and anticodon) Guanine - Cytosine The reason for this particular base pairing is that it is the only possible combination for the hydrogen bonds between the bases to be effectively made.
What anticodon pairs with the codon gau?
The anticodon that pairs with the codon GAU is CUA. This is based on the rules of complementary base pairing in DNA and RNA.
Where does the lining up of a codon and anticodon take place?
The mRNA codon and tRNA anticodon pair up on the ribosome.
The three bases on the tRNA molecule that are complementary to one of the mRNA codons are called the?
putos - what in the hell is putos? it sounds NASTY
Complementary nucleotides to a codon?
Anticodon
What is the codon for methionine is AUG what is its anticodon?
The anticodon for methionine is UAC. It pairs with the methionine codon AUG during protein synthesis.
How many bases are in an anti-codon?
3 bases make up an anti-codon, 3 bases also make up a codon
What two types of molecules are involved when the codon pairs with its anticodon?
The two types of molecules involved when the codon pairs with its anticodon are messenger RNA (mRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA). The mRNA carries the codon sequence, while the tRNA carries the anticodon sequence that base-pairs with the codon during translation.
How many nitrogenous bases are found in a anticodon?
3. The opposite three that are located on the codon of an mRNA strand.eg.If mRNA reads CAG UCG AGU Three codonsThen tRNA GUC AGC UCA Three Antiocodons each containing three nitrogenous bases.
What is the relationship between codons and anticodons?
A codon is found in the DNA sequence and in the mRNA sequence. The anticodon is the opposite sequence that would match with the sequence of the codon and allows pairing of the anticodon with the codon
What has an anticodon to bind to the protein synthesizing machinery?
The anticodon on a tRNA molecule binds to a complementary codon on the mRNA during translation. This binding ensures that the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain. The interaction between the anticodon and codon is essential for accurate protein synthesis.
What part of tRNA should match the codon of the mRNA?
The anticodon loop of tRNA should match the codon of the mRNA during translation. The anticodon is a sequence of three nucleotides on tRNA that is complementary to the codon on mRNA, allowing for the correct amino acid to be brought to the ribosome during protein synthesis.
