Students have asked these similar questions
The E site may not require codon recognition. Why?
What could be the effect of a deletion, substitution or addition that alters the sequence of the stop codons?
Base pairing at the third codon position is relaxed, allowing G to pair with U rather than always C. This is referred to as

- Codons in the set CUU, CUC, CUA, and CUG all code for the amino acid leucine. In this set, the first and second bases are identical; the identity of the third base is irrelevant.
