UAG and UAA are the other two stop codons.
Explanation:
In a mRNA sequence there are codons which represents the termination of polypeptide chain getting formed. Such triplet sequence which instead of coding for amino acids stops the chain is termed as stop codons.
The start and stop codons decide the length of the polypeptide chain or primary protein transcript or simply the whole protein molecule.
In the genetic code table there are 3 stop codons these are:
UAG
UAA
UGA
Mutation in any of these stop codons would cause the loss of protein function.
Once the stop codon sequence comes the protein synthesis stops.
