Question
Learning Task 3: TRACE THE CODE
dentify the amino acids coded for by the MRNA codon using the Genetic Code
Table below.
Order of bases
in mRNA
(codon)
AUC
Order or bases
Order of bases Amino acid Coded
in DNA
in tRNA
into Proteins
TAG
CAT
GC
СА
UAC
Methionine
Valine
Procedures:
Copy and fill in the table
Refer to the Genetic Code table to identify the amino acid.
To determine the order of bases in the first column (DNA), second column
1.
2.
3.
(codon) and third column (anticodon), consider the complementary base pairs in
DNA adenine pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine.
4
Example, AUG using the Genetic Code Table. Look for the first letter of the MRNA
codon on the left side of the genetic code table (A). The second letter of the MRNA
on the second letter column (U) and the third letter on the right-side column (G).
AUG codes for the amino acid methionine.
To identify the amino acid. Look at the bases in the MRNA codon.
5.
Do the same with the other codons in the chart.
