Best Answer

AGU and UCA both code for the amino acid serine - so do the codons AGC, UCU, UCC and UCG.

CCA codes for proline - so do CCU, CCC and CCG.

Therefore any codons which do not code for the sequence serine-serine-proline will be different.

For example: UUC-GCU-AAU will code for a different amino acid sequence

What is the relationship between an amino acid and a codon?

The relationship between nucleotide sequence and amino acid sequence is called the genetic code.- - -In those segments of DNA that carry information about proteins, the sequence of the nucleotides determines the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain (one chain of a protein).A group of three consecutive nucleotides codes for (represents) one amino acid. This group is called a codon.The different amino acids are coded for by different codons. What each of the 64 codons stands for is the genetic code.Three of the codons mean STOP; each of the 61 others stands for one of the 20 amino acids. In addition, one of the codons does double duty: it means START when it appears in a particular position.The coding sections of DNA are called genes. Some genes code for RNA (such as transfer and ribosomal RNA); polypeptide chains are coded for by other genes, or, more specifically, exons of those genes. The exons are often separated by introns, which, although consisting of a sequence of nucleotides, do not code for amino acids.The idea that nucleotide sequence (often referred to as base sequence) might code for amino acid sequence followed the proposal of the double-helix structure for DNA in 1953.In 1958 Francis Crick gave the name sequence hypothesisto the idea that the nucleotide sequence corresponded to the sequence of amino acids in the chain to be synthesized. (For some reason this name is not well known now, and is often confused with Crick's term "central dogma", which, as Crick used it, denotes a different concept.)In 1961 there were two important breakthroughs. Crick and Sydney Brenner showed that the code consisted of "triplets" (Brenner coined the word codon the following year), and Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei developed a technique for working out the code (in its messenger RNA version).By 1966 all the 64 possible codons had been worked out.


How many natural occurring amino acids does the genetic code allow for?

There are 64 possible triplets. At least one of the triplets needs to be a stop codon, so theoretically 63 different amino acids can be coded for. In practice, there's some redundancy, and in humans all codons are either stop codons or translate to one of twenty amino acids.


What are the Feature of genetic code?

it is made of a sequence of nucleotides:in DNA or RNA, these nucleotides are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil where it determines the specific amino acid sequence in the proteins,but is the biochemical of heredity and nearly universal in all organisms... DNA transfers and forms a code.


What protein sequence is coded by the code UAG?

The sequence UAG is the mRNA codon that means "stop" and does not code for an amino acid.


What amino acid is coded for by this sequence before mutation?

The neutral mutation does not change the amino acid coded for by the codon. A good example is the RNA codon that could be the CCA, CCC or the CCG.

What is the maximum number of amino acids that could be coded for by a sextion of mrna with the sequence guucagaacugu?

A codon is three bases long - so this section of mRNA would have 4 codons; UGA-UUC-AGU-AAC.Each codon relates to a specific amino acid (but several codons can code for the same amino acid, for example both UUU and UUC code for the amino acid Phenylalanine).Normally if you have four codons, such as this section of mRNA, the maximum number of amino acids you could have would be four. However, the first codon in this section, UGA, is actually a STOP codon. This means that when the ribosome reaches this codon, no further amino acids will be joined.This means that no amino acids could be coded for with this section of mRNA. (If the order of the codons was reversed, making the STOP codon last, then the answer would be three).
