Respuesta :

Codons are short sequences of three bases that code for one amino acid. In the exposed example, the amino acid chain is Lys - Arg - Cys. Option A is correct.

What is a codon?

A codon is a short sequence composed of three bases present in mRNA.

During protein synthesis, each of these sequences code or determine which amino acid must be added to the growing peptidic chain.

The sequence of codons present in the mRNA determines the sequence of amino acids in the new protein.

A single codon only codes for one amino acid. But the same amino acid might be coded by more than one codon.

In the exposed example, we have the following mRNA segment.

mRNA segment ⇒ AAGAGAUGU

             codons ⇒ AAG  AGA  UGU

     Amino acids ⇒  Lys    Arg    Cys

The amino acid chain formed by these codons is Lys-Arg-Cys. Option A is correct.

Which amino acid chain will be formed by the codons shown below?

AAG AGA UGU

Options,

A. Lys-Arg-Cys

B. Asn-Ser-Cys

C. Lys-Ser-Cys

D. Asn-Arg-Cys

The amino acid chain formed by AAG AGA UGU is Lysine-Arginine-Cysteine (Lys-Arg-Cys, Option A).

What is the genetic code?

The genetic code is a series of instructions encrypted in the nucleotide DNA sequence that serves to encode a given protein sequence.

According to the genetic code, specific triplets of nucleotides called codons are used to encode specific amino acids.

For example, the codon AAG is well known to be used to add a Lysine amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain during translation.

In conclusion, the amino acid chain formed by AAG AGA UGU is Lysine-Arginine-Cysteine (Lys-Arg-Cys).
