What else can I help you with?
What order of bases on mRNA will match a sequence on tRNA of UUA?
If the tRNA has the sequence UUA, then the mRNA it reads from will have the sequence complementary to UUA, which is AAU. RNA uses the nucleic acid uracil instead of the DNA counterpart, thymine.
What is the relationship between codons and anticodons?
A codon is found in the DNA sequence and in the mRNA sequence. The anticodon is the opposite sequence that would match with the sequence of the codon and allows pairing of the anticodon with the codon
What does tRNA have that mRNA does not have?
tRNA has a specific anticodon sequence that complements the mRNA codons, enabling it to bring specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. mRNA does not have this complementary sequence to directly bind with amino acids.
What is the decoder of mRNA?
The decoder of mRNA is the ribosome, a complex cellular machinery that reads the sequence of nucleotides on the mRNA and translates it into a sequence of amino acids, forming a protein molecule. The ribosome does this by matching each three-nucleotide codon on the mRNA with the corresponding tRNA carrying the complementary anticodon and specific amino acid.
Why are amino acids which compliment mRNA called tRNA?
Amino acids are not called tRNA. tRNA molecules carry amino acids to the mRNA on the ribosome. A tRNA molecule has a 3-base anticodon that is complimentary to a apecific mRNA codon, which allows the tRNA to place the amino acid in the correct sequence.
What order of bases on mRNA will match a sequence on tRNA of UUA?
If the tRNA has the sequence UUA, then the mRNA it reads from will have the sequence complementary to UUA, which is AAU. RNA uses the nucleic acid uracil instead of the DNA counterpart, thymine.
What is a ''codon''?
A three-nucleotide sequence in mRNA that specifies a particular amino acid or polypeptide termination signal; basic unit of the genetic code. In translation, an mRNA codon is recognized by its complementary tRNA anti-codon.
What is the relationship between codons and anticodons?
A codon is found in the DNA sequence and in the mRNA sequence. The anticodon is the opposite sequence that would match with the sequence of the codon and allows pairing of the anticodon with the codon
What does trna uses to match to the mrna?
tRNA contains an anticodon which is a sequence of three nitrogen bases that is complimentary to a particular mRNA codon.
How does the tRNA sequence compare to the original DNA sequence?
The tRNA sequence is derived from the DNA sequence through a process called transcription. During transcription, the DNA sequence is first converted into messenger RNA (mRNA), which is then translated into tRNA. The tRNA sequence is complementary to the mRNA codons, with the exception that uracil (U) in tRNA replaces thymine (T) found in DNA. Therefore, the tRNA sequence reflects the genetic code specified by the DNA, but in a format suitable for protein synthesis.
What process do mrna Trna work together to complete?
mRNA and tRNA work together to complete the process of translation, which is the second step of protein synthesis, in which the genetic code on the mRNA is translated into a sequence of amino acids by the tRNA.
What does tRNA have that mRNA does not have?
tRNA has a specific anticodon sequence that complements the mRNA codons, enabling it to bring specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. mRNA does not have this complementary sequence to directly bind with amino acids.
What acts as interpreter molecules that recognize specific amino acids and nucleotide base sequences?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules serve as interpreter molecules that recognize specific amino acids and nucleotide base sequences. tRNA carries the corresponding amino acid to the ribosome during protein synthesis.
Anti codons are part of the structure of?
An anticodon is a three nucleotide sequence found as part of Transfer RNA. The anticodon is the portion of the tRNA that binds to the relevant portion of the messenger RNA (mRNA). Overall, the anticodon assists in matching amino acid sequences to mRNA codon sequences during protein synthesis.
During protein synthesis the nucleotide sequence specific a particular species of?
tRNA
Cluster of three nucleotides?
A cluster of three nucleotides is called a 'codon' - However, the term is only really used to refer to refer to a 3 nucleotide sequence on an mRNA molecule. Codons provide a means by which charged tRNA molecules can specifically add amino acids to a growing polypeptide chain. tRNA molecules have the complementary 3 nucleotide sequence (anticodon) that allow the specific recognition.
What sequences of a piece of mRNA is AGUACA what is the matching sequence of the tRNA?
The mRNA sequence AGUACA corresponds to the codons that will be translated into amino acids during protein synthesis. The matching tRNA sequence, which carries the complementary anticodon, would be UCAUGU. Each tRNA molecule pairs with its corresponding mRNA codon to ensure the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.
