What else can I help you with?
What is the shortest gene?
The shortest gene is theoretically a single codon gene which codes for a single amino acid. This gene would consist of a start codon (AUG) and a stop codon (UAA, UAG, or UGA).
Given a chunk of DNA sequences how do you find out if it contains a gene?
In order to find a gene jsut look for a start codon near a promoter and then look for a stop codon in the sequence everything between the start and the stop codon is a gene
What is first located on a gene?
A promoter <--- Gradpoint/NovaNet A promoter is located at the beginning of a gene. A promoter functions by facilitating transcription of that gene
Is a segment of DNA that codes for a specific protein or characteristic.?
gene
What area of the gene is asection of DNA that carries the code used to make a protein?
The correct answer is Exon. This would be a gene. It is in charge of carrying information for the DNA and will have the codes for protein as well.

What factor changes the type of protein a gene codes for?
well the gene code itself, each codon (and anti-codon) codes for different proteins
What molecule contain anticodons?
The tRNA gene sequence is the anti-codon while mRNA is the codon sequence.
In a eukaryote an is a segment of a gene that codes for a protein?
codon.

Gene mutation in which only 1 condon is affected?
A point mutation, specifically a substitution mutation, is when only one nucleotide base is altered in a gene sequence, affecting one codon. This can result in a change in the amino acid encoded by that codon in the mRNA, impacting the protein produced by the gene.
What is each nucleotide triplet in mrna that specifies a specific amino acid called?
im pretty sure its a codon
Difference between the gene and codon?
Codon is the group of nucleotides. while nucleotides is madeup of a ribose sugar , phosphate group and the a molecule of nitrogenous base.
Why is AUG called the start codon in genetic coding?
The codon AUG is called the start codon in genetic coding because it signals the beginning of protein synthesis in a gene. It initiates the process of translating the genetic information into a protein.
