How many nucleotides are need to code one amino acid?
3
How many nucleotide bases does it take to specify one amino acid?
i think nine bases are needed for three amino acids because i think it takes three bases to make one amino acid
Does amino acid kill cancer cells?
No. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They're not cytotoxic, which is what they'd need to be to kill cancer cells.
What is an abnormal result in amino acid screening tests?
The blood plasma amino acid pattern is abnormal in overflow aminoaciduria and is normal in renal aminoaciduria. The pattern is abnormal in the urine test, suggesting additional tests need to be done to determine which amino acids are involved.
How does dna determine both the kinds of amino acids and their order in proteins that need to be synthesized?
Before a cell can create amino acids, it must transfer the DNA into RNA. The cell can then use RNA to create the amino acids. The call reads RNA in 3-letter sections, called codons. Each amino acid has a corresponding anti-codon. The cell matches these codes up and can then add the correct amino acid to the growing protein.
If a food does not contain the necessary amounts of a certain amino acid to meet a body need that amino acid is called what?
limiting amino acid
What is nonessinetial amino acids?
Nonessential amino acid is an amino acid which can be synthesized by an organism and thus need not be supplied in the diet.An alpha-amino acid that is required for protein synthesis and can be http://www.answers.com/topic/synthesize by humans
Why does a protein need an amino acid chain?
A protein is by definition, a chain of amino acids.
What are 2 acids humans need in their diet?
folic acid and amino acid
Should vegans take amino acid supplements?
No. All the essential amino acids you need are in plants.
Why does fetus need amino acid?
Amino acids are building blocks for the body's construction. There are 20 amino acids, but only 8 are called Essential Amino Acids.
How many nucleotides are need to code one amino acid?

If you want one amino acid how many codons will you need?
To obtain one amino acid, you generally need one codon. Each codon consists of three nucleotides, which encode for a specific amino acid during the process of protein synthesis. There are exceptions due to redundancy and the possibility of multiple codons coding for the same amino acid, but in most cases, one amino acid is encoded by one codon.
How many amino acids need to be joined together to form a protein?
At least two, otherwise it is just called an amino acid ;).
During translation the type of amino acid that is added to the growing polypeptide depends on what?
D. codon on the mRNA and the anticodon on the tRNA to which the amino acid is attached. __________ On my packet it says answer C. Codon on the mRNA and the anticodon on the tRNA but it's all the same thing XD
Where does the amino acid table use the code from?
I'm unsure what your question means, but if I interpreted correctly, the codes on the amino acid table are codons. So they are the codes that would be found on the mRNA. If you are looking up an amino acid on the table, just use the one it says under the codon you want to translate. For example, if the codon is AUG, the amino acid is just methionine. No need to do anything more.
How many nucleotide bases does it take to specify one amino acid?
