A gene, therefore, consists of a promoter,
a set of codons for the amino acids in a specific enzyme, and a stop codon.
The actions of this topogenic sequence were independent of on - going translation and could be conferred to heterologous proteins by the engineering of a discrete
set of codons.
Not exact matches
A
codon is
set of 3 nucleotides.
The
set of instructions (or code) is made up
of codons.
The differences between coding versus noncoding trees were not solely due to shorter sequence length
of the coding data, because the full coding data
set (13.3 million bp for c123) produced a tree with fully supported (100 % BS) relationships that were incongruent with those fully supported in the intron (19.3 million bp), TENT (37.4 million bp without the third
codon position), and WGT (322.1 million bp)(Figs. 2 and 5B, and table S3).
Then the cell's protein - production machinery, the ribosome, reads the four letters
of the RNA code in
sets of three letters called
codons.
From these models, it is easy for students to visualise how a
set of three base pairs from a messenger RNA molecule (
codon) matches with a particular amino acid.
