The codon for anticodon 3^ -UUUA- 5^ is

The codon for anticodon 3′3^{\prime}-UUUA- 5′5^{\prime} is

Options

  1. A3′−AAU−5′3^{\prime}-\mathrm{AAU}-5^{\prime}
  2. B5′5^{\prime}-UAAA- 3′3^{\prime}
  3. C5′5^{\prime}-AAAU-3'
  4. D3′−UAAU−5′3^{\prime}-U A A U-5^{\prime}

Correct answer

C. 5′5^{\prime}-AAAU-3'

Step-by-step solution

In RNA the thymine of DNA is replaced by uracil. Codon and anticodon both found on RNA and are complementary to each other so, the codon for anticodon 3′3^{\prime}-UUUA-5' will be 5′5^{\prime}-AAUU- 3′3^{\prime}.
