Which molecule carries an anticodon?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

tRNA (transfer RNA) carries an anticodon, which is a sequence of three nucleotides that is complementary to a codon on mRNA during translation. The anticodon on tRNA allows it to correctly match with the corresponding codon on mRNA and deliver the correct amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain. DNA carries the genetic information for the sequence of amino acids but does not directly participate in translation. mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, which is where translation occurs. rRNA (ribosomal RNA) is a component of the ribosome but does not carry the anticodon sequence.
