Chapter 25, Problem 6P
Interpretation Introduction

(a) Interpretation:

The codon that will be recognized by the anticodons - 5'ICG3' and the amino acid residues that correspond to the given anticodons should be determined.

Concept introduction:

A wobble is pairing of base within two nucleotides of the molecules.

The following are four wobble base pairs:

    5' end of anticodon Can pair with 3' end of anticodon
    G U or C
    C G
    A U
    U A or G
    I U, C, or A

Pictorial representation:
