The three coding letters on mRNA are known as a codon. They code for a specific amino acid to be added to the protein chain being created.
the three nucleotides on a mRNA that codes for a amino acid is called a codon
After processing, the mRNA sequence consists of exons, which are the expressed regions that code for proteins, joined together after the removal of introns. This mature mRNA is then translated into a protein by ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
The creation of mRNA is called transcription. mRNA is being transcribed from the DNA template.
The DNA molecule is a long term molecule which has to be highly conserved in order to be able to continue to provide the code for protein synthesis. Its double strand offers some protection against mutations, and allows mRNA to copy information off both strands simultaneously, increasing the efficiency of the event. mRNA is used to copy the DNA code and transport it to the cytoplasm, where it interacts with other RNA molecules to produce a protein product. When the protein has been made the mRNA is no longer used - it is a short term molecule. The strand needs to be able to pass through the rRNA and allow tRNA to add complementary bases to form the protein product. Mutations in the single stranded mRNA are not too catastrophic for the cells, as the molecule does not last for a great length of time, and further copies of the DNA can be made that are not muated in order to create the appropriate protein product.
DNA is divided into functional units called genes. A gene(def) is a segment of DNA that codes for a functional product (mRNA, tRNA, or rRNA). Since the vast majority of genes are transcribed into mRNA and mRNA is subsequently translated into polypeptides or proteins, most genes code for protein synthesis. The term polypeptide (def) refers to many amino acids (def) connected by peptide bonds (def). While all proteins are polypeptides, not all polypeptides are proteins. In some cases, smaller polypeptides coded for by two or more genes must be joined together to produce a functional protein. In other cases, as will be mentioned below, mRNA carries a transcript of several genes resulting in the synthesis of a large polypeptide that must subsequently be cleaved by enzymes called proteases into two or more smaller functional proteins. For simplicity, we will use the term proteinwhen referring to the end product of transcription and translation.-sudarvizhi prashanth
Codon.
Reading mRNA by the cell is called translation. The cell is translating the instructions encoded in the mRNA into protein. if you want to know an mRNA sequence however, you can create a cDNA librarey through reverse transcription (turn the RNA code into a DNA code) and then sequence it. i believe that's the most used way of humans (rather than cells) reading the mRNA message. i know people in my lab have used that method, but i personally haven't.
The three-letter term that refers to a yak is "ox."
The term for a sequence of three nucleotides that code for an amino acid in DNA is called a codon.
This term is the Codon.

Polysome.
I believe the term should be "tenets", not "tenants".
A DNA triplet, also known as a codon, is a sequence of three nucleotides in DNA that encodes for a specific amino acid during protein synthesis. Each triplet corresponds to a specific amino acid, allowing the genetic code to be translated into proteins. There are 64 possible DNA triplets, with 61 coding for amino acids and 3 serving as stop codons to signal the end of protein synthesis.
