You may wish to consult the genetic code above to answer the following question. A mutation has changed a portion of a protein coding gene that encodes a messenger RNA sequence. The original messenger RNA sequence is 5-AUGCCCAGAGCU-3' Which mutation is a nonsynonymous (missense) mutation that changes a single amino acid in the encoded protein?

The genetic code is redundant (i.e., most amino acids are coded for by more than one codon). Why is this beneficial when it comes to errors in DNA replication or transcription?
Order of bases in DNA Order of bases in MRNA (codon) AUC Order of bases in tRNA (anticodon) UAG TAG Amino acid coded into proteins CAT CAU GUC CCA ATG Methionine (Met) Valline (Val) GUU, GUC, GUA, GUG ACU ACA UGU AAA AAA GAA CuU Procedure: Refer to the Genetic Code Table below to identify the right amino acid coded. To determine the order of bases in the first column (UNA), second column (codon) and the third column Is the anticodon. Consider the complementary base pair, in DNA and in RNA To identify the amino acid, took at the bases in the MRNA codon, example AUG using the Genetic Code Table. Loo: for the first letter of the MRNA codon on the left side of the genstis code table (A), the second letter of the MRNA on the second letter column (U), and the third letter on the right-side column (G).
