Codons are a series of three of the 4 nucelotides (bases) that call for the creation of one of 20 amino acids...or start or stop protein synthesis. Some amino acids have only one codon others have several.
A C T G (U in RNA)
ATC starts protein synthesis for example
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).
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
A promoter <--- Gradpoint/NovaNet A promoter is located at the beginning of a gene. A promoter functions by facilitating transcription of that gene
gene
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.

well the gene code itself, each codon (and anti-codon) codes for different proteins
The tRNA gene sequence is the anti-codon while mRNA is the codon sequence.

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.
im pretty sure its a codon
Codon is the group of nucleotides. while nucleotides is madeup of a ribose sugar , phosphate group and the a molecule of nitrogenous base.
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.
