|
The tRNA anticodon GGG carries the amino acid ____
|
|
proline
|
|
|
glycine
|
|
|
valine
|
|
|
phenylalanine
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In Bacillus subtilis, four codons, CCU, CCC, CCA, and CCG, are used for proline. There exists, however, only one proline-specific tRNA having the anticodon mo(5)UGG.
Detailed explanation-2: -The codons AAA, CCC, GGG, and UUU specify the amino acids lysine, proline, glycine, and phenylalanine, respectively.
Detailed explanation-3: -The anticodon on the tRNA that delivers the methionine to the ribosome is UAC, whereas tRNAs with anticodons of AAU, AAC, GAA, GAG, GAU, and GAC deliver leucine.
Detailed explanation-4: -SOLVED: What would be the anticodon on a TRNA which is attached to the amino acid Valine. The code for Valine is GUC.
