Answer:

Codon

Codon:

  • three-nucleotide sequence on the mRNA that codes for a specific amino acid or a signal to start or stop protein synthesis
  • The binding between the anticodon of tRNA and the codon of mRNA is a key step in the process of translation, where the information in the mRNA is used to assemble a corresponding sequence of amino acids in a protein.
