User: What's the name for converting the genetic code into the language of proteins?





Weegy: The genetic code (which includes the codon) serves as a basis for establishing how genes encoded in DNA are decoded into proteins. [ A critical interaction in protein synthesis is the interaction between the codon in messenger RNA (mRNA) and the anticodon in an aminoacyl-transfer RNA (aminoacyl-tRNA). A codon is a triplet of adjacent nucleotides in mRNA that specifies an amino acid to be incorporated in a protein. Because the codon can be made from three of the four possible ribonucleotides, there are 4 3 or 64 combinations, leading to 64 different codons. The first letter of the codon is at the 5'-end, while the last letter is at the 3'-end. For example, 5'-AUG-3'. Read more: Codon - Chemistry Encyclopedia - proteins, number ]
