10 Questions
During translation, what is the role of mRNA codons?
They specify the order of amino acids in a protein from N-terminal to C-terminal.
How many codons code for amino acids?
61
What is the function of start codon in mRNA?
Initiates the translation process.
What happens to pre-mRNA before it becomes mature mRNA?
It goes through processing steps.
