tRNA contains the anticodon
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.
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.
The first tRNA molecule is the anticodon. It contains the sequence UAC and drops off the amino acid methionine to begin the polypeptide chain.
the tRNA carries only the amino acid that the anti-codon specifies. for example: one tRNA molecule for the amino acid cysteine has an anticodon of ACA. this anticodon binds to thh mRNA codon UGU.
It binds to a part of the tRNA which binds to methionine.
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.
The anticodon sequence would be GAG-UUC-ACG-AAG.
The matching anticodon for GCA would be CGU.
transfer RNA (tRNA) attaches to amino acids and transports them to ribosomes, the site at which amino acids are assembled into proteins.I hope that helps!
An anticodon is a three nucleotide sequence found as part of Transfer RNA. The anticodon is the portion of the tRNA that binds to the relevant portion of the messenger RNA (mRNA). Overall, the anticodon assists in matching amino acid sequences to mRNA codon sequences during protein synthesis.
Answer ?
The anticodon of GCA ia CGU. The anticodon is the sequence of nucleotides on transfer RNA that matches with and transiently binds to the codons on the mRNA during protein synthesis.
