What is A? A three base sequence on a tRNA molecule that is complimentary to a codon on an mRNA.
While the specific nucleotide sequence of an mRNA specifies which amino acids are incorporated into the protein product of the gene from which the mRNA is transcribed the role of tRNA is to specify which sequence from the genetic code corresponds to which amino acid. The mRNA encodes a protein as a series of contiguous codons each of which is recognized by a particular tRNA. One end of the tRNA matches the genetic code in a three-nucleotide sequence called the anticodon. The anticodon forms three

Brief history. In the genetic code there are 4 3 = 64 possible codons (3 nucleotide sequences). For translation each of these codons requires a tRNA molecule with an anticodon with which it can stably complement. If each tRNA molecule is paired with its complementary mRNA codon using canonical Watson-Crick base pairing then 64 types of tRNA molecule …
Each tRNA has an exposed sequence of three nucleotides known as the anticodon which are complementary in sequence to a specific codon that may be present in mRNA. For example the first codon encountered is the start codon composed of the …
