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.

stop codon on mRNA


On what structure is the codon found?

A codon is found on a molecule called messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Each codon on the mRNA corresponds to a specific amino acid in the protein sequence.


What is the three base sequence in mRNA?

The three base sequence in mRNA is called a codon. Codons code for specific amino acids during protein synthesis. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid or a stop signal.


What is the term for the three letter code on mRNA?

The three-letter code on mRNA is called a codon. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid during protein synthesis.


What name is assigned to augwhich stands for methionine in which all mRNA molecules start?

The start codon. The codon AUG is generally referred as the start codon because the translation of mRNA begins on AUG.
