Some codons code for the same amino acid as another codon because of redundancy in the genetic code. This redundancy allows for flexibility and accuracy in protein synthesis, as multiple codons can code for the same amino acid, providing a buffer against errors in DNA replication or transcription.
What else can I help you with?
What codon is the code for the amino acid histidine His?
The mRNA codons for histidine are CAU and CAC.
What amino acid is coded for by the codon AUC?
The anticodon would be UAG, and the amino acid coded for is isoleucine.
How many amino acids make a codon?
One codon specifies a specific amino acid. However, more than one codon can code for the same amino acid. For example, the codon GUU codes for the specific amino acid valine; and the codons GUC, GUA, and GUG also code for valine.
What are codon and anticodons?
Codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on mRNA. Anti codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on tRNA.The codons are for the traslation of mRNa to an amino acid sequence by using ribosomes.
There can be more than one what for the same amino acid?
There can be more than one codon that codes for the same amino acid. This is due to the redundancy of the genetic code, where multiple codons can specify the same amino acid.
What codon is the code for the amino acid histidine His?
The mRNA codons for histidine are CAU and CAC.
What codon is the codon for the amino acid histidine?
The mRNA codons for histidine are CAU and CAC.
Does every codon represent an amino acid?
No, not every codon represents an amino acid. There are several codons known as "stop" codons (UGA, UAA, UAG) that do not code for an amino acid; instead they code for the termination of translation.
What amino acid is coded for by the codon AUC?
The anticodon would be UAG, and the amino acid coded for is isoleucine.
How many codons to bring in one amino acid?
One codon.
How many amino acids make a codon?
One codon specifies a specific amino acid. However, more than one codon can code for the same amino acid. For example, the codon GUU codes for the specific amino acid valine; and the codons GUC, GUA, and GUG also code for valine.
What are codon and anticodons?
Codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on mRNA. Anti codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on tRNA.The codons are for the traslation of mRNa to an amino acid sequence by using ribosomes.
How many codons are needed to specify 2 amino acids?
each codon have 3 nitrogenous bases . 3 nitrogenous bases = 1 amino acid or say 1 codon =1 amino acid ,so 2 codon = 2 amino acid
There can be more than one what for the same amino acid?
There can be more than one codon that codes for the same amino acid. This is due to the redundancy of the genetic code, where multiple codons can specify the same amino acid.
What does each codon code for?
Each codon codes for a specific amino acid, which is a building block of proteins. The sequence of codons in mRNA determines the sequence of amino acids in a protein. There are 64 possible codons, with 61 coding for amino acids and 3 serving as stop codons to signal the end of protein synthesis.
What are the amino acids on the codon table?
Each codon codes for only one amino acid, or a codon is a start or stop codon, but no codon codes for more than one amino acid.
How many codons would be needed if a bacterial protein contains 150 amino acids?
1. the start codon 2. 150 codons, 1 for each amino acid 3. the stop codon The total number of different codons is 64...if this question is asking about unique codons used the answer will depend on which amino acids are in the peptide.
