Serine (Ser) amino acid. --> This is response to the above answer. The question is for the anticodon, but the genetic code table is for CODONS. As you know codons and anticodons bind antiparallel to each other. So, the codon for anticodon AGU = ACU. The first base of the anticodon base paris to the 3rd base of the codon (i.e., wobble base). Therefore with this information the anticodon AGU codes for Threonine. I have a graduate degree in Molecular Biology.

Given these codons use the Genetic Code Wheel provided to determine the amino acids. GCG-UUU?

The codon GCG corresponds to the amino acid alanine (Ala), and UUU corresponds to phenylalanine (Phe). Therefore, the sequence GCG-UUU translates to the amino acids alanine and phenylalanine.


Given these codons use the Genetic Code Wheel provided to determine the amino acids. GCG-UUU a. Aspartic acid-leucine-Serine b. Glycina-Cysteine c. Proline-Valine d. Alanine-phenylalanineGiven these c?

The codons GCG and UUU correspond to alanine and phenylalanine, respectively, according to the Genetic Code Wheel. Therefore, the correct answer is d. Alanine-phenylalanine.


How does the cell know which proteins to make from the DNA code?

Firstly, DNA is transcripted to mRNA, which is then translated by ribosomes into your polypeptide. Each set of 3 bases on the mRNA (codon) codes for a particular amino acid. However, there can be up to four codons, coding for a single amino acid. ie GCU, GCC, GCA and GCG all code for Alanine. Therefore, if you know the amino acid sequence, you can work backwards to mRNA and then to DNA, but you wouldn't be very accurate as you'd need to guess the codons.


Why anthranilic acid is not a amino acid?

Anthranilic acid is not an amino acid because it lacks an amino group (-NH2) within its molecular structure, which is a defining feature of amino acids. Despite its name containing "acid," anthranilic acid is actually a precursor to various amino acids but is not classified as an amino acid itself.

What is the amino acid sequence when given mRNA?

To determine the amino acid sequence from mRNA, you would first transcribe the mRNA into a complementary DNA sequence, then translate the DNA sequence into amino acids using the genetic code. Each set of three nucleotides (codon) in the mRNA corresponds to a specific amino acid in the protein.

True or False A peptide bond joins the amino group of one amino acid to the amino group of another amino acid?

False. A peptide bond joins the carboxyl group of one amino acid to the amino group of another amino acid.
