Why is it important that a signal to stop translation be part of protein synthesis?

They signal to stop protein synthesis and release the amino acid chain. Stop codons are important because they signal the end of synthesis. Sometimes, mRNA is longer than what is needed for the amino acids so without stop codons, synthesis would continue until the end of the strand of RNA, leaving you with an incorrect amino acid chain.


Each codon calls for a specific?

amino acid


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.


For any codon there can only be one?

There is only one corresponding amino acid for each codon. Each codon codes specifically for one amino acid (however, an amino acid can be coded for by several different codons). For example: CAU codes for Histamine (and not any other amino acid) But, CAC also codes for Histamine.


What amino acid does rna sequence AAA specify?

No amino acid is coded for. It is a stop codon that instructs to stop the process of translation.


How many codones are neded for a single amino acid?

3, a three-nucleotide codon in a nucleic acid sequence specifies a single amino acid.The code defines how sequences of three nucleotides, called codons, specify which amino acid will be added next during protein synthesis


What is the amino acid to uua?

what is the true amino acid is that amino acid aau?


What meaning do the first and last codons have for protein synthesis?

Codons are used for making amino acids. Some codons will tell the ribosomes to start tell the tRNA to make the amino acids or to stop making amino acids. I like to think of the start/initiator/promoter codon(AUG) as a capital letter in a sentence and the stop/terminator codons(UAA, UAG, and UGA) as periods in a sentence.


Does every codon represent an amino acid?

No, not every codon represents an amino acid. There are several codons known as "stop" codons (UGA, UAA, UAG) that do not code for an amino acid; instead they code for the termination of translation.


What does the amino acid TAG stand for?

UAG, UAA, UGA are all stop codons which doesnt code for any amino acid.


What is a codon and how many codons exist?

Assuming you do not have a typo in your question, a codon is a triplet of adjacent nucleotides in the messenger RNA chain that codes for a specific amino acid in the synthesis of a protein molecule.


Synthesis of a protein stops when?

it stops when an amino acid is missing from the diet
