Which one of the following statements is not correct?
- A Cysteine is coded by UGU and UGC codons.
- B Tyrosine is coded by UAU and UAC codons
- C UAA codon codes for lysine.
- D UGG codon codes for tryptophan.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) UAA codon codes for lysine.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(C) UAA codon codes for lysine.,
UAA is a stop codon, not coding for any amino acid. Lysine is coded by AAA and AAG
UAA is a stop codon, not coding for any amino acid. Lysine is coded by AAA and AAG
