  2. Anticodons are sequences of nucleotides that are complimentary to codons. They are found in tRNAs, and allow the tRNAs to bring the correct amino acid in line with an mRNA during protein production.

  3. Anticodon - Definition and Examples - Biology Online Dictionary

    www.biologyonline.com/dictionary/anticodon

    Biology definition: An anticodon is a molecular part of the transfer RNA (tRNA) made up of three adjacent nucleotides. It binds to the complementary coding triplet of nucleotides (called a codon) in messenger RNA during the translation phase of protein synthesis.

  4. Anticodon - National Human Genome Research Institute

    www.genome.gov/genetics-glossary/Anticodon

    An anticodon is a trinucleotide sequence located at one end of a transfer RNA (tRNA) molecule, which is complementary to a corresponding codon in a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence.

  5. Anticodon - Biology Simple

    Anticodons are a specific sequence of three nucleotides found in transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules. These anticodons play a crucial role in the process of translation, where the genetic information stored in DNA is converted into functional proteins.

  6. Anticodon is a trinucleotide sequence present on one arm of the tRNA (transfer RNA) which is complementary to the sequence or codon present on mRNA (messenger RNA). Image Source: Cell_ A Molecular Approach, Fourth Edition, The – Geoffrey M. Cooper & Robert E. Hausman.

  7. Anticodons: Structure, Function, and Role in Protein Synthesis

    biologyinsights.com/anticodons-structure...

    Anticodons are composed of a sequence of three nucleotides located on one end of a tRNA molecule. This triplet sequence is complementary to the codons found on messenger RNA (mRNA), allowing for the precise pairing necessary for protein synthesis.

  8. Anticodon Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster

    www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/anticodon

    The meaning of ANTICODON is a triplet of nucleotide bases in transfer RNA that identifies the amino acid carried and binds to a complementary codon in messenger RNA during protein synthesis at a ribosome.
