Name a codon for the amino acid arginine?
arginine - is an amino acid that plays a role in cell division, healing of wounds, removing ammonia from the body, improving immunity to illness, and hormone secretion. Arginine is used by the body to make nitric oxide, condon -three bases in a DNA or RNA sequence which specify a single amino acid.
What amino acid does ACG code for?
It is Arginine
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.
Is glutamine acidic?
No. Glutamic acid and Aspartic acid are acidic amino acids while Histidine, Arginine and Lysine are basic amino acids.
What element in the amino acid is detected to be present in the lead acetate test?
Arginine.
How do amino acids specify codons?
Nucleutoides.
What is arginine?
Arginine is an amino acid.

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
What amino acid does ACG code for?
It is Arginine
What does an amino acid table show?
Amino acid tables are used to translate mRNA codons into amino acid sequences. They also tell whem mRNA codons produce stops.
What element is arginine?
Arginine (R or Arg) cannot be identified as an element, is an amino acid.
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.
Is argenine basic?
Arginine is a basic Amino Acid.
Which amino acid is coded for by AGA?
Lysine
How many codons are needed to specify three amino acids 6 or 9?
The answer is nine because one codon has 3 letters.Improved AnswerThe above answer is completely incorrect. The question is how many codons are necessary to specify three amino acids, not bases (letters). As my original answer (which was removed by the previouis contributor) pointed out, each amino acid requires one codon to specify it, so the basic answer is, three codons are necessary to specify any three amino acids. However, if the questioner had in mind how many codons are necessary to specify a polypeptide consisting of three amino acids, the answer is five, because, in addition to the three codons necessary for the amino acids, a start codon of AUG (on the mRNA transcript), and one stop codon (UAG, UGA,or UAA on the mRNA transcipt) are also needed. So, in this sense, five codons are needed to specify a polypeptide of 3 amino acids.Improved Answer: The answer is 9. ^ fail XD
What is the number of codons that actually specify amino acids is?
61. there are 64 total codon arrangements. However three of those (UAA, UAG, UGA) are STOP codons and in turn do not call for the tRNA to bind a protein. Rather, these 3 codons call for termination of translation. The START condon in RNA is UAG, with calls for the amino acid (Met'). It is important to remember that even though there are 61 codons that call for amino acids, only 20 amino acids are available. This means that more than one codon can call for the same amino acid which brings about the REDUNDANT characteristic of codons. However they are NOT AMBIGUOUS, meaning that a codon cannot call for several different amino acids. Serveral codons can call for the same amino acid, but each codon can only call for ONE specific amino acid.
