Step-by-Step Analysis
Start by aligning each mRNA codon with its corresponding amino acid.
The given mRNA sequence is 5′-AUG-UCU-UCG-UUA-UCC-UUG-3′.
- AUG codes for Methionine (Met). This is the initiator codon that sets the reading frame.
- UCU codes for Serine (Ser).
- UCG also codes for Serine (Ser)......Login to view full explanationLog in for full answers
