How is DNA read
DNA is ‘read’ in sequence from the 5’ end of the molecule to the 3’ end.

Triplet
A sequence of three bases in DNA that codes for one amino acid

How is mRNA read
mRNA is ‘read’ in sequence from the 5’ end to the 3’ end

Codon
A sequence of three bases on mRNA that codes for one amino acid.

mRNA codon chart

Anti-codon
A sequence of three bases on tRNA codes for one amino acid.

Triplet ⟶ Codon ⟶ Anti-codon
DNA = triplet: TAC, mRNA = codon: AUG, tRNA = anti-codon: UAC, amino acid = methionine
