密码子, 密码子序列
a sequence of three adjacent nucleotides in mRNA that codes for a specific amino acid during protein synthesis or serves as a start or stop signal in the translation process
- AUG is the start codon, initiating the translation process in protein synthesis.
AUG是起始密码子,在蛋白质合成中启动翻译过程。
- Some codons have dual functions, serving both as amino acid codons and stop signals.
一些密码子具有双重功能,既作为氨基酸密码子又作为停止信号。
- Mutations in codons can lead to changes in the amino acid sequence of a protein, affecting its function.
密码子中的突变可导致蛋白质氨基酸序列的变化,影响其功能。
- The genetic code is degenerate, meaning that multiple codons can code for the same amino acid.
遗传密码是简并的,意味着多个密码子可以编码相同的氨基酸。
- UGA, UAA, and UAG are stop codons, signaling the end of protein synthesis.
UGA、UAA和UAG是终止密码子,标志着蛋白质合成的结束。
