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: Another codon that codes for leucine, for instance, is UUG.
text: The first codon is always AUG, so it is called the start codon.
text: Since the first codon is AUG, the first anticodon must have the matching bases UAC.
text: When the tRNA carries the amino acid methionine and it has the anticodon UAC, this anticodon will pair up or bind to the codon of mRNA that is AUG.
text: The translation of protein starts from the first codon and in the sequence first codon is always AUG in the messenger RNA sequence.
text: Methionine is the only amino acid specified by just one codon, AUG.
text: There is only one codon, AUG, so you need only one tRNA with the anticodon UAC.
text: Another codon, AUG, also has a special function.
text: For example: if a codon was AUG, than an anticodon would be UAC (remember that in
text: A codon, AUG in eukaryotes and either GUG or UUG in bacteria, that signals the initiation of translation and the first amino acid in a polypeptide chain.
text: For example, two codons coding for the amino acid leucine are UUA and UUG, which differ only in the third base of the triplet.
