A codon table can be used to translate a genetic code into a sequence of amino acids. [1] [2] The standard genetic code is traditionally represented as an RNA codon table, because when proteins are made in a cell by ribosomes, it is messenger RNA (mRNA) that directs protein synthesis. [2] [3] The mRNA sequence is determined by the sequence of ...
Amino acids can be classified according to the locations of the core structural functional groups (alpha- (α-), beta- (β-), gamma- (γ-) amino acids, etc.); other categories relate to polarity, ionization, and side-chain group type (aliphatic, acyclic, aromatic, polar, etc.). In the form of proteins, amino-acid residues form the second ...
An example of an amino acid sequence plotted on a helical wheel. Aliphatic residues are shown as blue squares, polar or negatively charged residues as red diamonds, and positively charged residues as black octagons. A helical wheel is a type of plot or visual representation used to illustrate the properties of alpha helices in proteins.
A Possible start codons in NCBI table 1. ATG is most common. [2] The two other start codons listed by table 1 (GTG and TTG) are rare in eukaryotes. [3] Prokaryotes have less strigent start codon requirements; they are described by NCBI table 11.

Protein primary structure is the linear sequence of amino acids in a peptide or protein. [1] By convention, the primary structure of a protein is reported starting from the amino-terminal (N) end to the carboxyl-terminal (C) end. Protein biosynthesis is most commonly performed by ribosomes in cells. Peptides can also be synthesized in the ...
The table below lists the abundance of amino acids in E.coli cells and the metabolic cost (ATP) for synthesis of the amino acids. Negative numbers indicate the metabolic processes are energy favorable and do not cost net ATP of the cell. [12] The abundance of amino acids includes amino acids in free form and in polymerization form (proteins).
