The amino acid code for the mRNA codon GAG corresponds to the amino acid Glutamic acid (Glu). In the genetic code, GAG is one of the codons that specifies this particular amino acid.
A silent point mutation is a change in a DNA sequence that does not alter the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein. This often occurs due to the redundancy of the genetic code, where multiple codons can code for the same amino acid. For instance, both GAA and GAG codons code for glutamic acid, so a mutation from GAA to GAG would be a silent mutation. Thus, any codon that codes for the same amino acid as the original codon can be considered as coding for the same silent point mutation.
A silent mutation occurs when a change in the DNA sequence does not alter the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein. This can happen through a substitution of a nucleotide that still codes for the same amino acid due to the redundancy of the genetic code. For example, if the original sequence is "GAA" (which codes for glutamic acid) and it changes to "GAG," this would represent a silent mutation since both codons code for the same amino acid. Thus, the change in the sequence that doesn't affect the protein's amino acid sequence indicates a silent mutation.
GAA and GAG code for Glutamic Acid.
Amino acids can be represented by more than one codonex. Although codons GAA & GAG both specify glumatic acid (redundancy), neither of them ever specifies for any other amino acid (no ambiguity)
There are few main reasons why genetic variations occues, Theres one called Chromosomal abberation, this usually occurs during crossing over in the stage prophase I during meiosis (form of sexual reproduction) What occurs is a duplication, deletion, or a rearrangement of chromosomal segments. So a chromosome might take in information, but it won't exchange and with the other chromosome. The next is Gene mutation, and this results in a change in the stored genetic info meaning one nucleotide is changed. ex GAG TCC TGT can be switch into GAG TTC TGT, because that middle nucleotide was altered this resulted in a new code for a different amino acid, so there fore a new protein was created, resulting in a mutated gene. There are a few others but these are two reasons. Others would be Gene Segregation, Fertlization, Non-disjunction - David
The DNA triplet "GAG" encodes for Glutamic Acid.
There are two codons that code for the amino acid phenylalanine: UUU and UUC.

The anticodon sequence would be GAG-UUC-ACG-AAG.

The genetic code is degenerate, meaning that multiple codons can code for the same amino acid. With only 4 bases in RNA (A, U, G, C) and a triplet code (3 bases per codon), there are 64 possible combinations (4^3). However, since there are only 20 amino acids, some amino acids are encoded by multiple codons.
AUG: Methionine (start codon for transcription) AAU: Asparagine GGC: Glycine UCG: Serine AUC: Isoleucine UGA: Stop codon (this does not encode for an amino acid)
You shouldn't be gaging yourself. Any tiem stomach acid touches the tooth, it will "rot"
My guess would be to touch your gag reflex.
There are a number of things that would cause you to gag for no reason. Smoking is one of the main causes as the lungs are affected and are not able to take air as required.
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is one of the stongest acids around. The acid, if consumed, would burn through a person's throat, causing massive inner tissue and nerve damaged. The trauma may or may not cause the gag reflex. It is not recommended to drink hydrochloric acid under any circumstances.
