codon
Triplets of DNA nucleotides arranged in sequence along DNA are transcribed into the codons of mRNA strands.[]im[]code[]
Each tri-nucleotide sequence in the DNA reading frame and its transcribed mRNA codon signals for the insertion of one amino acid into a polymerizing peptide chain. The sequence of codons in genes determines the sequence of amino acids inserted into peptide, polypeptide and protein chains (primary structure).
