A messenger RNA mRNA is 336 nucleotides long including the start and stop codons the number of amino acids in the protein translated from this mRNA is?

The number of nucleotides in an mRNA is directly related to the number of amino acids in the resulting protein. Since each amino acid is coded for by a sequence of 3 nucleotides (codon), the number of amino acids is determined by dividing the total number of nucleotides (336) by 3. Therefore, a mRNA of 336 nucleotides will translate to a protein with 112 amino acids.


How can one determine the amino acid sequence from mRNA?

To determine the amino acid sequence from mRNA, one can use the genetic code to translate the sequence of nucleotides in the mRNA into a sequence of amino acids. Each set of three nucleotides, called a codon, corresponds to a specific amino acid. By reading the mRNA sequence in groups of three nucleotides and matching them to the genetic code, one can determine the corresponding amino acid sequence.


What are AGG and GCA and GUU examples of?

AGG, GCA, and GUU are examples of codons in the genetic code. Codons are groups of three nucleotides that specify a particular amino acid during protein synthesis. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid, allowing the cell to translate the genetic information stored in DNA into proteins.


Do organisms share the same genetic code?

With only a very few exceptions, the overwhelming majority of organisms share the same genetic code. This is not the same thing as DNA sequence. The genetic code is the relationship between codons in DNA and the 20 amino acids found in proteins.


Characteristics of ribosomes?

Ribosomes are cellular organelles that are responsible for protein synthesis in all living organisms. They are composed of two subunits and can be found either floating freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes are made up of RNA and proteins, and they translate genetic information from mRNA into functional proteins.

Are RNA molecules are made of nucleotides?

Yes. Ribonucleic acids, also called RNA, is the intermediary molecule used by organisms to translate the information in DNA to proteins. RNA is a polymer - made up of chains of nucleotides which have three parts: A five-carbon ribose sugar A phosphate molecule One of four nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, or uracil

How do nucleotides translate into amino acids?

Nucleotides in messenger RNA (mRNA) are read in sets of three, known as codons. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules recognize the codons on the mRNA and bring the corresponding amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. This process is called translation.


What is the function of transfer?

tRNA mediates recognition of the codon and provides the corresponding amino acid. It mainly is recognized for carrying amino acids. It then gives to it mRNA to translate the nucleotides proteins.

Used just once in Genesis 6:14 with God instructing Noah to use this wood in the construction of the Ark, it was not translated in the King James Version. Modern versions tend to translate this wood to Cypress.

What do organisms use to translate codons into amino acids?

Organisms use transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules to translate codons into amino acids. tRNA molecules carry specific amino acids and have an anticodon region that base pairs with the mRNA codon during protein synthesis.


Are codons found in eukaryotes?

Eukaryotes are cells in which DNA is contained in a nucleus. Codons describe sections of 3 base pairs in DNA which code for an amino acid. So, anything with DNA has codons, therefore eukaryotes have codons.
