Source sentences:
text: The main difference between codon and anticodon is that codon is the language which represents an amino acid on mRNA molecules whereas anticodon is the complement nucleotide sequence of the codon on tRNA molecules.
text: For example, glycine amino acid codons have the fourfold degenerate site because all the codons at this position represent the same amino acid.
text: In addition to the codons that represent amino acids, one codon, AUG, stands for the start signal, and the amino acid methionine and three codons, UAA, UGA and UAG, stand for the stop signal.
text: Genetic code contains codons, which represent each amino acid in a protein.
text: Codon: Codon is a nucleotide triplet, which represents an amino acid.
text: Each codon represents an amino acid, or a start or stop signal.
text: Similarly if two codons at the same position represent the same amino acid, it is called as twofold degenerate site.
