Protein synthesis most often starts at AUG as a start codon and terminates at UAA, UAG and UGA as stop codons. Each codon specifies only one amino acid in all organisms. State which of the following statements is/are CORRECT.

Options

  1. AThe above information is consistent with the fact that the genetic code is universal.
  2. BProtein coding RNA from viruses, mammals or plants can be translated in bacteria.
  3. CIn higher organisms, protein synthesis begins with methionine.
  4. DUse of more than one termination codon is more effective than a single termination codon in ensuring terminati
