"The codon AUG specifies either initiation of protein synthesis or an internal methionine. What would be the sequence of the anticodon of a tRNA that binds to this codon?"

Respuesta :

Answer:

3'-UAC-5' anti-codon in tRNA. 5'-CAU-3' if anticodon is written 5' 3'.

Explanation:

AUG is works as either initiator of protein synthesis  or an internal methionine  and codes for Met/fMet.

tRNA  contain its anti-codon, which with the help of ribosome works in protein synthesis according to the codons in mRNA.The anti-codon of AUG is 3'-UAC-5' anti-codon in tRNA. And 5'-CAU-3' if anticodon is written 5' 3'. There are 64 total codons out of which 3 are stop codons.
