A codon table is a grid that displays the relationship between nucleotide triplets (codons) and the amino acids they encode. It typically consists of rows representing the first two nucleotides of the codon and columns representing the third nucleotide, with each cell indicating the corresponding amino acid. For example, the codon "AUG" codes for Methionine, while "UAA," "UAG," and "UGA" are stop codons. The table is essential for translating mRNA sequences into proteins during the process of translation.
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.
There are 64 different codons. Refer to the related link for a table of DNA codons.
When looking at the chart, the first letter in the codon is located on the left hand side of the chart. The second letter is at the top of the chart. Find when these two letter intersect. Then look at the third letter. It is found on the right hand side of the chart, in the box where one and two intersect. That should give you the name of the amino acid that is made when that codon is read during protein synthesis
The start codon. The codon AUG is generally referred as the start codon because the translation of mRNA begins on AUG.

A codon is found on the mesenger RNA (mRNA) the anti codon is the exact opposite of a codon. so lets say your codon was G C A your anticodon would be C G U The codon and anti codon work together to help make strands of protein The codon is kind of like the code for what protein you need. transfer RNA (tRNA) collects free RNA nucleotides and brings them to the Ribosome to create an anti codon which brings a certain protein to the ribosome. Do with that information what you will.

The codon for trytophan is UGG.
A complimentary codon is one that pairs with another codon according to the base pairing rule. For example, the DNA codon ATG is complimentary to the mRNA codon UAC.
anti-codon.
The codon typically used as the start codon in protein synthesis is AUG.
The start codon. The codon AUG is generally referred as the start codon because the translation of mRNA begins on AUG.
The amino acid coded for by the original sequence can be determined based on the codon table. The sequence is comprised of sets of three nucleotides that correspond to specific amino acids, so you would need to convert the sequence into codons and then use the table to identify the amino acid coded for by those codons.
A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides in DNA or RNA that codes for a specific amino acid. A sense codon is a codon that specifies one of the 20 standard amino acids in protein synthesis.
