Which tRNA can bind at mRNA Condon UAC?
Correct answer: B. tRNA with anit-condon AUG
- A. tRNA with anit-condon ACU
- B. tRNA with anit-condon AUG
- C. tRNA with anit-condon TGA
- D. tRNA with anit-condon TCU
Explanation
The codon is a sequence of three bases on mRNA that determines an amino acid. The anticodon is a sequence of tRNA that is complementary to the codon. From the question, first, write the antiparallel sequence for the codon based on the tRNA anticodon. In this example, the anticodon is UAC. Thus, the codon would be AUG.

About Ribonucleic Acid (RNA)
Ribonucleic acid is generally a single-stranded nucleic acid containing ribose and uracil instead of thymine. Coverage includes mRNA, tRNA and rRNA, complementary base pairing, transcription and translation, and the differences between RNA and DNA in structure, location and biological function.
