|
TAC

|
|
ATG

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Methionine is an aminoacid for which the codon on mRNA is AUG. The complementary sequence in the anticodon loop of tRNA will be UAC.
Detailed explanation-2: -Updated On: 27-06-2022. Anticodon present on tRNA complementary to initiator codon AUG of mRNA is UAG.
Detailed explanation-3: –According to Chargaff’s base-pairing rules and antiparallel alignment of anticodon and codon, we can say that the tRNA anticodon 3’-UAC-5’ will pair with the mRNA codon 5’-AUG-3’. This codon AUG is the initiation codon and it codes for formyl-Methionine.
