In the translation of a DNA a stop Codon will help to put a stop to the process of translation.There are three stop codons used in the process when a ribosome reaches one of the Codon it stops.

Normally the stop codon at the end of mRNA halts translation and releases the polypeptide.

The process in which genetic data is translated into amino acid language from nucleic acid language is known as translation. The stop codons are in charge of halting DNA translation.

There are codon sequences that stop the process. In RNA they are UAG, UAA and UGA

In DNA they are TAG, TAA and TGA.

How is DNA translation controlled?

Translation of the mRNA code is controlled by enzymes. DNA is not directly translated into proteins.


What was halts translation in biology?

There are several different possibilities. The stop codon will halt translation normally. Insufficient free amino acids will stop translation (hardly ever happens in nature). Various toxins target ribosomes and translation machinery (ex. ricin).

What halts translation?

The termination codon on the mRNA strand stops translation by signaling the ribosome to release the polypeptide chain. This termination codon does not code for any amino acid and instead signals the end of protein synthesis.
