Question

What are the similarities and differences among the three nonsense codons?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The three nonsense codons are UAG (amber), UAA (ochre), and UAG (opal). A mutation which replaces a codon for an amino acid with a codon for chain termination (UAG, UAA, or UGA). A mutant tRNA that recognizes a nonsense (stop) codon and inserts an amino acid into the growing polypeptide chain.
