Question
GTC is a sequence of nucleotides found on the template strand of a gene. Which of the following combinations represents the amino acid that is being coded for on this portion of the gene and the anticodon of the tRNA molecule that carries that amino acid? (Note refer to the genetic code table to help you with this question) tRNA molecule with a GUC anticodon carrying the amino acid glutamine (Gln) tRNA molecule with a GUC anticodon carrying the amino acid valine (Val) tRNA molecule with a CAG anticodon carrying the amino acid valine (Val) tRNA molecule with a CAG anticodon carrying the amino acid glutamine (Gln)
Explanation / Answer
The answer is A and the tRNA molecule with a GUC anticodon carrying the amino acid glutamine (Gln).
