What is the sequence of the codon to which the transfer RNA shown in the following figure would bind during translation?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The anticodon sequence on the transfer RNA shown in the figure is 5'-AGC-3'. During translation, this anticodon will bind to the complementary codon on the messenger RNA in the ribosome. The codon that is complementary to the anticodon sequence 5'-AGC-3' is 3'-UCG-5'. Therefore, the sequence of the codon to which the transfer RNA shown in the figure would bind during translation is UCG, and the best choice is B) AGC.
