What else can I help you with?
Are amino acids only represented by one codon?
No. Amino acids are not always represented by only one codon. Several may code for one amino acid.
What amino acid is represented by only one codon?
There are two amino acids that only correspond to one codon:Tryptophan whose codon is UGGMethionine whose codon is AUG
What are 2 amino acids that are represented by only one codon?
Methionine (Met) is represented by the codon AUG, which also serves as the start codon. Tryptophan (Trp) is represented by the codon UGG.
There can only be one what for every codon?
There can only be one amino acid for every codon. Tryptophan and Methionine are the types of amino acids that correspond to codon.
Which amino acids have only one codon?
There are two different amino acids that only have one codon. Methionine thatâ??s DNA codon is ATG and Tryptophan thatâ??s DNA codon is TGG.
All amino acids are specified by only one codon?
No. Some are specified by only one codon eg. methionine and tryptophan. But some have more than one codon eg. threonine.
What are the amino acids on the codon table?
Each codon codes for only one amino acid, or a codon is a start or stop codon, but no codon codes for more than one amino acid.
For any one codon there can be only one what?
For any one codon, there can be only one amino acid that it codes for. Each codon in the genetic code corresponds to a specific amino acid, ensuring that the correct sequence of amino acids is produced during protein synthesis.
Which amino acid was never coded for?
Several amino acids are not coded for in biology. 20 are. The two standard amino acids are selenocysteine and pyrrolysine. Then there are the numerous non-standard amino acids, which include hydroxyproline and selenomethionine.
How many amino acids does each condon code for?
No they are not. For a codon, there are 4^3 = 64 codon combinations, but only 20 [common] amino acids. The 4 represents the 4 nitrogenous bases, and the ^3 represents the arrangement into a codon (3 bp). An example of an amino acid that is specified by more than one amino acid is Alanine, which is specified by any of the following combinations: GUU, GUC, GUA, GUG. Because most amino acids have more than one codon, the genetic code is called "degenerate".
Do stop codon have an amino acid?
A stop codon (UGA, UAA, UAG) only codes for a stop. No amino acid results from a stop codon.
Is it possible for mutations to go unnoticed in mRNA?
Yes it is. There are more triplet codons than there are [biologically active] amino acids that need to be represented in the Cell, so that there is some duplication of codon/amino acid 'alignment'. This occurs only in the third base position of the triplet codon - the 'wobble base' position - so if a mutation occurred in the wobble (third) position and the codon was one of the few that was not alone in its amino acid specificity this mutation would go unnoticed.
