The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells..

The deciphering of the genetic code was accomplished by the American biochemists Marshall W. Nirenberg, Robert W. Holley, and Har Gobind Khorana in the early 1960s.

Characteristics of the genetic code:

  • TRIPLET NATURE
  • DEGENERACY
  • COMMALESS
  • NON-OVERLAPPING
  • UNIVERSAL
  • NON-AMBIGUITY

CODES:

1.STOP CODON

  • UAG
  • UAA
  • UGA

2.INITIATION CODON

  • AUG

NOTE.

The two strands of a DNA molecules as a linear, non-overlapping sequence of the nitrogenous bases

  • Adenine (A)
  • Guanine (G)
  • Cytosine (C)
  • Thymine (T).

------FOR RNA ..URACIL(U)

These are the "alphabet" of letters that are used to write the "code words".
