I'm unsure what your question means, but if I interpreted correctly, the codes on the amino acid table are codons. So they are the codes that would be found on the mRNA. If you are looking up an amino acid on the table, just use the one it says under the codon you want to translate. For example, if the codon is AUG, the amino acid is just methionine. No need to do anything more.

Interpret the genetic code to determine the amino acid coded for by the condon ccu?

The link below includes a table of codons and their respective amino acids. You can use this to determine the amino acid coded by any three nucleic acid bases. Read down, then across, then find the one you want from that block of four. In the case of CCU, the amino acid is proline.

What does it mean to say that the genetic code is triplet?

Prior to understanding the details of transcription and translation, geneticists predicted that DNA could encode amino acids only if a code of at least three nucleotides was used. The logic is that the nucleotide code must be able to specify the placement of 20 amino acids. Since there are only four nucleotides, a code of single nucleotides would only represent four amino acids, such that A, C, G and U could be translated to encode amino acids. A doublet code could code for 16 amino acids (4 x 4). A triplet code could make a genetic code for 64 different combinations (4 X 4 X 4) genetic code and provide plenty of information in the DNA molecule to specify the placement of all 20 amino acids. When experiments were performed to crack the genetic code it was found to be a code that was triplet. These three letter codes of nucleotides (AUG, AAA, etc.) are called codons. The genetic code only needed to be cracked once because it is universal (with some rare exceptions). That means all organisms use the same codons to specify the placement of each of the 20 amino acids in protein formation. A codon table can therefore be constructed and any coding region of nucleotides read to determine the amino acid sequence of the protein encoded. A look at the genetic code in the codon table below reveals that the code is redundant meaning many of the amino acids can be coded by four or six possible codons. The amino acid sequence of proteins from all types of organisms is usually determined by sequencing the gene that encodes the protein and then reading the genetic code from the DNA sequence.

What types of amino acid screening tests are performed?

Two types of amino acid screening tests are used together to diagnose amino acid disorders.Blood plasma screening.Urine test.Both these tests use thin layer chromatography to separate the amino acids present.


How you can isolate free amino acid from protein?

Amino acids can be isolated from proteins via hydrolysis. The simplest way to do this is to use enzymes to break down the protein into individual amino acid constituents.


What m-rna and t-rna codes do you use to make a protein chain with the amino acids glutamine glycine and histidine?

mRNA codon for amino acid glutamine is CAA or CAG, anticodon of tRNA for amino acid glutamine is GUU or GUC. mRNA codons for amino acid glucine are GGU, GGC, GGA and GGG, anticodons are CCA, CCG, CCU and CCC. Codons for histadine are CAU and CAC, anticodons are GUA and GUG. The code of protein chain with amino acid glutamine, glucine and histadine depends on the sequence of glutamine, glucine and histadine.
