How is it possible for gene with a mutation in coding region to encode a polypeptide with the same amino acid sequence as the nonmutant gene?
If the mutant codon still codes for the same amino acid (a silent mutation). For example: GUU, GUC, GUA and GUG all code for the amino acid Valine. So if the mutation changed the codon from GUU to GUA - Valine would still be produced and therefore the polypeptide will be identical.
How codons are used to build protein?
Aside from starting and stopping the translation process each codon triplet is the code for one amino acid. As there are 64 codons the amino acid code is redundant. So, ACU, could be the code for one amino acid in the mRNA coding sequence. Google codon table.
Which codon is the code for the amino acid serine (Ser)?
AGU
What is the amino acid to uua?
what is the true amino acid is that amino acid aau?
Number of bases in mRNA code that specify one amino acid molecule?
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.
How many amino acids make a codon?
One codon specifies a specific amino acid. However, more than one codon can code for the same amino acid. For example, the codon GUU codes for the specific amino acid valine; and the codons GUC, GUA, and GUG also code for valine.
Which amino acid will be carried to a RNA molecule containing the triplet code A-A-A?
A tRNA molecule with the anti-codon AAU should match up with the mRNA codon UUA. This tRNA will be carrying the amino acid Leucine.
For which specific amino acid does each codon code in the genetic code?
Each codon in the genetic code codes for a specific amino acid. For example, the codon "AUG" codes for the amino acid methionine.
What amino acid is encoded by the initiation codon AUG?
The amino acid that is encoded by the initiation codon AUG is methionine. It is the only amino acid which is specified by just one codon.
How is it possible for gene with a mutation in coding region to encode a polypeptide with the same amino acid sequence as the nonmutant gene?
If the mutant codon still codes for the same amino acid (a silent mutation). For example: GUU, GUC, GUA and GUG all code for the amino acid Valine. So if the mutation changed the codon from GUU to GUA - Valine would still be produced and therefore the polypeptide will be identical.
Which codon is the code for the amino acid histidine?
It is CAC and CAU.
What is the specific codon that codes for the amino acid tryptophan in the genetic code?
The specific codon that codes for the amino acid tryptophan in the genetic code is "UGG."
What codon is the code for the amino acid histidine His?
The mRNA codons for histidine are CAU and CAC.
What does the codon GGG code for?
The codon GGG codes for the amino acid glycine.
The codon GAU is for?
GAU is the codon.
What does the amino acid UAC code for?
Phenylalanine.
How many nucleotides are required to encode one amino acid?
A codon, or a 3-base code is required to code for one amino acid.
