Three-nucleotide sequence on messenger RNA that codes for a single amino acid. :)
A codon consists of three genetic letters that make of the overall genetic code
pair of phosphate and sugar
Five. Correct according to mastering biology.
The small ribosomal subunit binds to the mRNA The tRNA bearing methionine binds to the start codon , The large ribosomal subunit binds to the small one. The start codon signals the start of translation
Short Answer is: for every triplet codon there is a recognizable anti-triplet codon.
called CODON.
The codon for trytophan is UGG.
AUG is a start codon. It starts transcription, which is the synthesis of mRNA

UGA stands for Threonine. UGG stands for Threonine. Nothing would change. This is none as a silent mutation. Source: AP Biology Student and a DNA-Codon to Amino acid chart ^ actually, according to my chart, UGA is a stop codon and UGG stands for TRYPTOPHAN (not threonine), also UGG is the ONLY codon that codes for tryptophan, so it isn't a silent mutation, either. the correct answer is that the peptide will be longer than normal.
A complimentary codon is one that pairs with another codon according to the base pairing rule. For example, the DNA codon ATG is complimentary to the mRNA codon UAC.
anti-codon.
The start codon. The codon AUG is generally referred as the start codon because the translation of mRNA begins on AUG.
Short Answer is: for every triplet codon there is a recognizable anti-triplet codon.
called CODON.
GAU is the codon.
The codon for trytophan is UGG.
They all begin with AUG, which is the start codon.
