If a DNA codon changes from TTA to TTC, what amino acid would the matching mRNA sequence code for?

Biology

Marina86 [1]3 years ago

Answer:

TTC codon encodes for Phenylalanine (Phe)

Explanation:

A codon (also known as a nucleotide triplet) is a sequence of DNA or RNA composed of three consecutive nucleotides. During protein synthesis, each codon specifies a particular amino acid or stop signal (i.e., termination codons). There are 64 possible codons, 61 encode for amino acids, while three (3) codons represent stop signals (e.g., UAG, UAA, UGA). In this case, TTC (i.e., UUC codon in the mRNA) codon encodes the amino acid Phenylalanine, while TTA (i.e., UUA codon in the mRNA sequence) codon encodes the amino acid Leucine.
