What is the genetic code?
A triplet codon system where each 3-nucleotide sequence in mRNA corresponds to one amino acid.
2
New cards
What is the start codon and what does it code for?
AUG, which codes for methionine.
3
New cards
What are the stop codons?
UAA, UAG, and UGA.

What is the structure of tRNA?
Cloverleaf shape with an anticodon loop and an amino acid attachment site at the 3′ end.

New cards
What is the role of tRNAs in translation?
They act as adaptors, matching codons in mRNA to their corresponding amino acids.
