type: OTHER
value: into a codon
type: OTHER
Source sentences:
text: These codons are ambiguous codons, meaning that more than one codon can specify the same amino acid.
text: Premature stop codon; a change in a codon that specifies an amino acid into a codon that is a stop codon.
text: Codons that specify the same amino acids are called synonyms and these codons usually differ in the last base of the triplet.
text: Some anti-codons have modified bases that can pair with more than one codon, specifying the same amino acid; this means that we don't need 61 different tRNA molecules for all 61 codons.
text: When we say the genetic code is degenerate, it means that more than one codon can specify the same amino acid.
text: Codons that specify the same amino acid are: synonymous.
text: The genetic code is said to be degenerate, which means: more than one codon can specify an amino acid.
text: Most codons are universal (or nearly universal) in that they specify the same amino acids in almost all organisms.
