Answer:

The start codon is AUG

Explanation:

A three nucleotide sequence (represented with bases) of a DNA or a RNA which translates to a specific amino acid is referred to as codon. To begin the translation into a new protein, the first three nucleotide is always AUG (called the START codon) which is the codon for methionine.

NOTE: AUG is the initial of the bases; Adenine, Uracil and Guanine
