The codon and anticodon form basepair between mRNA and tRNA
Formation of base pairs between codons and anticodons:
- The messenger RNA or mRNA is a single-stranded molecule that carries information from DNA to make proteins by translation.
- mRNA has triplets of nucleotides which are called codons(eg, UGG). These codons determine the sequence of amino acids formed after translation.
- The tRNA or transfer RNA carries the complementary triplets of anticodons(Eg, ACC) as shown in the diagram.
- The codons pair up with anticodons and the amino acids attach to one another to form a chain. In the end, the stop codon binds with the anticodon and terminates the translation and the protein chain is released.
