What is each nucleotide triplet in mrna that specifies a specific amino acid called?
im pretty sure its a codon
What do codons UGG and AUG have in common?
AUG is the only codon which codes for methionine and UGG is the only amino acid that codes for Tryptophan. These are the only codons which have only one codon to represent their specific amino acid.
For which amino acid is the one letter code q?
glutamine This is the side chain amidated form of Glutamate, so it is quite polar but carries no formal electrical charge when present in a polypeptide. You can find a good introductory description of the amino acids, their structures and classification, at this web site www.bio.davidson.edu/Biology/aatable.html
Why does a single DNA sequence encode three possible amino acid sequences?
The genetic code is based on a 3 base sequence because the anticodon on the transfer RNA consists of a 3 base sequence. Each transfer RNA carries one amino acid, and the anticodon, the area that attaches to the corresponding codon in the messenger RNA during translation, is only 3 bases long.
Where can you find amino acid tx2-6?
In Brazil
Where do you find a anticodon?
Codon is found on the messenger RNA(m RNA).During translation, the codons on the m RNA are read by the ribosome and amino acid corresponding to the codon is added. when ribosome encounters a stop codon (UAG,UGA and UAA) translation terminates.

im pretty sure its a codon
What molecule would you find anticodon?
In the protein/metabolic RNA molecule called transfer RNA. This molecule pichs up individual amino acids in the cytosol and brings them one at a time to the ribosome where the end of the molecule bearing the anticodon docks on the ribosome and adds it's amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain.
In which molecule would you find an anti-codon?
an anti-codon is a code for an amino acid found on protein
Number the mRNA codons in the transparency from left to right Write down the anticodon each codon pairs with Then translate each codon into the amino acid it codes for Use the chart in your text to?
This question requires a strand of mRNA to be given so you can copy the codons and then find the anticodons which will give you the amino acids. Your question is identical to mine from a work booklet pg 68#6 just flip back to page 67 and you'll see a 14 codon mRNA strand!
Where do you find anticodon?
The anti-codon is the molecule of mRNA in the nucleus which copies the codon from DNA in reverse. This process is reversed again when tRNA copies the mRNA in reverse, thereby restoring the original codon sequence.
What do codons UGG and AUG have in common?
AUG is the only codon which codes for methionine and UGG is the only amino acid that codes for Tryptophan. These are the only codons which have only one codon to represent their specific amino acid.
What codon codes for amino acids phenylalanine did scientist find?
There are two codons that code for the amino acid phenylalanine: UUU and UUC.
What is a codon chart?
The genetic code is a series of three bases in a row called a codon. Each codon represents and amino acid. For example, the DNA strand AAA-TCT would code for the amino acids lys-ser. You'll need a codon chart to find codons, which can be found online. Hope this helps ! [=

What is the first amino acids in most proteins?
Methionine. It functions as the "start" codon (tells the translation apparatus to start translating) and as a result is usually the first amino acid. However, it is frequently removed later. Methionine is by far the most common amino acid to find at the beginning of a chain, and will almost always have been there at some stage during protein synthesis. There is no other amino acid you can confidently claim is the first amino acid in anything but a small proportion of proteins.
