Question
HOW DO U COUNT HOW MANY CODONS IN MRNA
Answers
GPT 3.5
To count the number of codons in an mRNA sequence, you need to first identify the individual codons within the sequence. Each codon consists of three nucleotides (A, U, G, or C) and codes for a specific amino acid.
Start by breaking down the mRNA sequence into sets of three nucleotides (codons). Then, simply count the number of codons present in the entire sequence.
For example, if you have an mRNA sequence like AUU GCA CGU UAG, you would break it down into AUU, GCA, CGU, UAG and count that there are four codons present in the sequence.
You can also use bioinformatics tools and software to automatically count the number of codons in mRNA sequences.
