ATCAGTGAT A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides that code for an amino acid. If the DNA sequence shown here goes through transcription and translation, how many amino acids will result from this sequence?
3
Translation is a process that produces
Polypeptide Chains
I am arranged as a double helix or "twisted ladder."
DNA
What is the order for Protein Synthesis?
Transcription -> Translation -> Protein
Proline
CCC
What amino acid is represented by the codon UUA?
Leucine
A type of RNA that carries an amino acid and transfers it to the protein chain being assembled in the ribosome.
Transfer RNA
The role of tRNA is to
move amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosome
