Question

What 3 letters correspond with (met) amino acid which is the starting point for translation?

Answer 1

AUG
because start codon in all mRNA molecules has the sequence AUG and codes for methionine.

Answer 2

The correct answer is option C which is AUG.

Step-by-step explanation:

• AUG is the starting codon present on the mRNA and it codes for the methionine.
• A codon is the 3 base sequence on the mRNA which is specified for a particular amino acid.
• There is tRNA for a code which has complementary anti codon for that codon. As the codon binds to particular anticodon, it signal the tRNA for the specific amino acid to attache with poly peptide chain.
