A tRNA anticodon pairs with an mRNA codon during translation.


How many bases are in an anti-codon?

3 bases make up an anti-codon, 3 bases also make up a codon


If UCA is a codon that specifies the amino acid serin What would be the base sequence for the anticodon on tRNA that pairs with this codon?

It will be AGU.


What is anticondon?

An anticodon is the three-base sequence on a tRNA molecule that pairs with a specific mRNA codon.


What is an anti codon?

The anticodon is a sequence of the tRNA that compliments the matching t base pairs on the mRNA. The anticodon is an amino acid specific to the tRNA molecule.


Codons found in messenger RNA?

Anticodons are sequences of three base pairs on a transfer RNA that correspond to (and subsequently pair up with) codons on messenger RNAs. These complementary pairs come together by forming hydrogen bonds. For example, a tRNA with the anticodon UUU may correspond to the codon AAA on the mRNA.


Why is the anticodon AGA complementary to the codon UCU?

The only base-pairs that are possible are: Adenine - Uracil (for RNA, since the question refers to codon and anticodon) Guanine - Cytosine The reason for this particular base pairing is that it is the only possible combination for the hydrogen bonds between the bases to be effectively made.


How many nitrogenous bases are found in a anticodon?

3. The opposite three that are located on the codon of an mRNA strand.eg.If mRNA reads CAG UCG AGU Three codonsThen tRNA GUC AGC UCA Three Antiocodons each containing three nitrogenous bases.


What is the sequences of the anticodons for the transfer RNA molecules that carry each of the amino acids in the protein sequence tyrosine leucine proline serine stop codon and threonine?

It depends on the mRNA sequence being read. As seen on a codon table, tyrosine has two synonymous codons -- UAU and UAC. The tRNA anticodon sequences depend on the mRNA sequence and will base pair (A pairs with U and C pairs with G) with the corresponding codon sequence on the mRNA. If the mRNA contains UAU in the correct reading frame, then the anticodon for the tRNA for tyrosine will be AUA. Likewise, if the mRNA reads CCU (for Proline), the tRNA that binds to that site will have a GGA anticodon. I hope this will be enough to serve as a guide for you to answer the rest of the question. -Davo


What is the anticodon for CGA?

A pairs with T so the anticodon would be TTT


How does an anticodon compare to a codon?

The anticodon is a sequence of three unpaired nucleotides in transfer RNA, which can bind through base pairing, to the complementary triplet of nucleotides, or codon in a messenger RNA molecule. The codon makes up the genetic code, the anticodon makes the amino acid.
