The codon table may look kind of intimidating at first. Fortunately, it's organized in a logical way, and it's not too hard to use once you understand this organization.

In this article, we'll take a closer look at the genetic code, which allows DNA and RNA nucleotide sequences to be translated into the amino acids they represent.

Learn about how the information in an mRNA sequence is decoded to make a polypeptide.

This exercise tests knowledge on interpreting the genetic code, translation and mutations.

This exercise tests knowledge on interpreting the genetic code, translation and mutations.

To see how the codon table works, let's walk through an example. Suppose that we are interested in the codon CAG and want to know which amino acid it specifies.

During translation, the nucleotides of the mRNA are read in groups of three called codons. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid or a stop signal. This set of relationships is known as …

This article covers the foundational concepts of codons, anticodons, the wobble hypothesis, and the universal nature of the genetic code, with applications that are essential for MCAT …

The results of this experiment are presented in Table 1. The table shows the counts per minute per milligram of protein produced when poly-uracil RNA was added ("+") compared to when it …
