In DNA there are four different ones; Adenine, Cytosene, Guanine, and Thymine. In RNA, everything is the same except that instead of hymine, there is Uracil.

How many codons are in 1 protein?

The number of codons needed to code for a protein varies depending on the length of the protein. Each amino acid is coded for by a specific sequence of three nucleotides (a codon). Therefore, you would need to divide the total number of nucleotides in the protein's gene sequence by 3 to find the number of codons required.


How many codons are present on the mRNA strand?

There are 6 codon here. Look at the letters and put them into threes. Those three are called codons. Each codes for one amino acid and all of these is a string of threes which will make a small protein.


How many protein-coding codons are there?

61 codons specify the amino acids used in proteins and 3 codons (stop codons) signal termination of growth of the polypeptide chain...so 64 total


What part do codons and anticodons play in translation?

tRNAanti-codonsact as the interpreters of the mRNA codon sequence


Trna has codons or anticodons?

anti-codons for sure!


Are there three bases on the mRNA called codons?

All mRNA and DNA sets of three are codons, and rRNA is anti-codons.


How many codons are in aaaugcucguaa?

There are four codons in AAA UGC UCG UAA. A codon is a sequence made of three nitrogenous bases. Codons have particular features, making it possible for them to be start codons, stop codons, introns, or exons.


What is true about codons?

Codons are sequences of three nucleotides in mRNA that specify a particular amino acid. There are 64 possible codons, including start and stop codons. Codons are central to the process of translation, where they are matched with complementary anticodons on tRNA molecules to assemble proteins.


Which codons are the stop signals?

There are three such codons known as stop codons, which are UAA, UAG, or UGA.


What are codons that do not carry information for making proteins called?

Codons that do not carry information for making proteins are called non-sense codons.


What is the start codon for each?

ATG is the prominent start codon for most of the Eukaryotic proteins, other start codons such as CTG also exist in other species.


How many different codons are possible with the four different nucleotides?

There are 64 possible different codons (4 nucleotides in a sequence of 3), including 61 codons that code for amino acids and 3 stop codons.
