Best Answer

Threonine is coded by the codons ACU, ACA, ACC, and ACG. When copying questions directly from your homework, please rephrase it with sufficient information as to allow it to be properly answered.

If the question is:

If the mRNA codon ACC stands for the amino acid threonine in a striped bass, it is impossible for the codon to code for the same amino acid in a human?

The answer is "False". ACC codes for the amino acid Threonine regardless of the organism in which it occurs.

What amino acid does ACC code for?

A codon is the three letter combination of the three nucleotides that form a single unit of DNA. They are A, G, C and U and are repeatable, giving 64 possible combinations. ACC is the codon that refers to the amino acid Threonine, or The for short.

What is the protein strand created from the mrna strand cagaaguuccucucgc?

The sequence of amino acids (forming a protein) that result from the mRNA strand CAG-AAG-UUC-CUC-UCG-C would be: Glutamine-Threonine-Phenylalanine-Leucine-Serine Each codon must be three bases long - therefore the end of this mRNA sequence 'C' cannot code for an amino acid. There would also need to be a stop codon at the end to complete translation.
