Detailed explanation-1: -anticodon – a sequence of three nucleotides on a tRNA molecule that bond to a complementary sequence on an mRNA molecule. The anticodon sequence determines the amino acid that the tRNA carries.
Detailed explanation-2: -Anticodon An anticodon is a trinucleotide sequence located at one end of a transfer RNA (tRNA) molecule, which is complementary to a corresponding codon in a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence.
Detailed explanation-3: -The tRNA anticodon 3-UAC-5 will pair with the mRNA codon.
Detailed explanation-4: -Each tRNA contains a set of three nucleotides called an anticodon. The anticodon of a given tRNA can bind to one or a few specific mRNA codons. The tRNA molecule also carries an amino acid: specifically, the one encoded by the codons that the tRNA binds.
Detailed explanation-5: -Each mRNA codon consists of three nucleotides that pair with the tRNA in the 5’ 3’. The corresponding tRNA anticodon loop includes three nucleotide positions complementary to the codon. Given a 5’ 3’ codon sequence, the complementarity of the tRNA anticodon is most easily seen in the anti-complementary direction.
