3 bases are needed to specify an mRNA codon.
There are three bases in mRNA, known as a codon, that specify one amino acid molecule. This is because each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid in the genetic code.
A 3-base sequence of nitrogen bases on a molecule of mRNA is called a codon.
3 bases make up an anti-codon, 3 bases also make up a codon
codon
The mRNA sequence with the bases adenine (A), cytosine (C), and uracil (U) corresponds to the codon ACU. This codon translates to the amino acid threonine. In the genetic code, each set of three nucleotide bases (codon) corresponds to a specific amino acid.

A 3-base sequence of nitrogen bases on a molecule of mRNA is called a codon.
The name of a series of 3 nucleic acids bases on the tRNA is called anticodon. The name for a series of 3 nucleic acid bases contained on mRNA is called codon.
A codon in DNA or mRNA is a group of three nitrogenous bases that encode for one specific amino acid. The sequence of codons in the mRNA is read during translation to determine the amino acid sequence of a protein.
The smallest number of bases needed would be 300 bases, as each amino acid is coded for by a sequence of three bases (codon) in mRNA. Therefore, 100 amino acids x 3 bases per codon = 300 bases in the mRNA molecule to code for the protein.
3 bases make up an anti-codon, 3 bases also make up a codon
No, a codon is a triplet of mRNA bases that specifies a particular amino acid.
codon
A codon is exactly three bases long, so an mRNA strand with 60 bases would contain 20 codons. The first codon will encode for methionine (this is called the "start" codon) and the last codon will be a "stop" codon, which does not encode for an amino acid. Thus, an mRNA strand of 60 bases will code for 19 amino acids. Keep in mind, it is possible for a stop codon to be anywhere on the mRNA strand, and when a stop codon reaches the ribosome, translation must stop. For example, if an mRNA strand contained 30 codons, and the 15th were a stop codon, the mRNA would only code for 14 amino acids and then be done. The other 15 codons would go untranslated.
3. The opposite three that are located on the codon of an mRNA strand.eg.If mRNA reads CAG UCG AGU Three codonsThen tRNA GUC AGC UCA Three Antiocodons each containing three nitrogenous bases.
The mRNA sequence with the bases adenine (A), cytosine (C), and uracil (U) corresponds to the codon ACU. This codon translates to the amino acid threonine. In the genetic code, each set of three nucleotide bases (codon) corresponds to a specific amino acid.
