Which of the following is initiation codon :
A
UAG
B
AUC
C
AUG
D
CCU
Detailed Solution
AUG is the initiation (start) codon. It codes for methionine (formylmethionine in bacteria) and marks the start of translation.
UAG is a stop codon; AUC codes for isoleucine and CCU for proline.
So the initiation codon is AUG.
UAG is a stop codon; AUC codes for isoleucine and CCU for proline.
So the initiation codon is AUG.
