Summary Introduction

To write:

The amino acid sequence produced from the mRNA nucleotide sequence CAACGCAUUUUG.

Introduction:

The mRNA consists of many bases. A collection of three bases that has the capability to code for a particular amino acid is called codon. Codons are present in the mRNA. These codons attach with the anticodon part of tRNA to synthesize amino acid. The anticodon part of tRNA is complementary to the codon part of mRNA. As a result, these two join together and undergo a process called translation to produce amino acids.
