An anticodon is a specific sequence of three nucleotides found on a tRNA (transfer RNA) molecule that is complementary to a corresponding codon on mRNA (messenger RNA). During protein synthesis, the anticodon pairs with the codon on the mRNA, ensuring that the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain. This process is crucial for accurately translating the genetic code into functional proteins.
