Answer:

Explanation:

During translation, AUG acts as an initiator of protein synthesis as well as a codon for methionine(MET)

incorporation at internal protein positions in eukaryotes and an N-formylmethionine (fMet) in prokaryotes. However, the presence of AUG alone is not sufficient to start translation – initiation factors and a specific nearby sequence (or nucleotide context) are also required.
