Question

Give the initiation codon for protein synthesis. Name the amino acid it codes for.

Answer 1

$\huge{\boxed{\boxed{\mathfrak{\pink{Answer}}}}}$

AUG is the most common START codon and it codes for the amino acid methionine (Met) in eukaryotes and formyl methionine (fMet) in prokaryotes. During protein synthesis, the tRNA recognizes the START codon AUG with the help of some initiation factors and starts translation of mRNA.
