∙ 12y agoThe codon AGU codes for the amino acid Serine, GGG for Glycine, CCU for Proline, and GUG for Valine.
Each codon codes for only one amino acid, or a codon is a start or stop codon, but no codon codes for more than one amino acid.
To assemble amino acids into proteins, you need to follow the genetic code in DNA, which specifies the sequence of amino acids. This information is transcribed into mRNA and then translated by ribosomes in the cytoplasm. Transfer RNA molecules bring the correct amino acids to the ribosome according to the codons on the mRNA. The amino acids are linked together through peptide bonds to form a polypeptide chain, which folds into its functional protein structure.
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and play essential roles in various biological processes in the human body. There are 20 different amino acids that the body needs to function properly, some of which can be synthesized by the body while others need to be obtained through diet. Amino acids are involved in functions such as building muscle, repairing tissue, and supporting immune function.

Major organic molecules include carbohydrates (such as glucose and starch), lipids (like fats and phospholipids), proteins (consisting of amino acids), and nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). These molecules are essential for various biological functions in living organisms.
The order of amino acids in a polypeptide is determined by the sequence of codons in the mRNA. The genetic code determines that specific codons correspond to specific amino acids. The mRNA is read in sets of three nucleotides (codons), each of which codes for an amino acid, resulting in the correct sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide.
Each codon codes for only one amino acid, or a codon is a start or stop codon, but no codon codes for more than one amino acid.

The position of glycine in collagen refers to its specific location within the collagen protein chain. In the case of seeing 'glycine at position 988', it means that glycine is the amino acid located at position 988 in the sequence of the collagen protein. Each position signifies a specific amino acid residue within the protein structure.
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They contain an amino group (-NH2), a carboxyl group (-COOH), and a side chain that varies between different amino acids. There are 20 standard amino acids that are used by cells to synthesize proteins.

Most proteins are linear polymers built from series of up to 20 different L-α-amino acids. All amino acids possess common structural features, including an α-carbon to which an amino group, a carboxyl group, and a variable side chain are bonded. Only proline differs from this basic structure as it contains an unusual ring to the N-end amine group, which forces the CO-NH amide moiety into a fixed conformation. The side chains of the standard amino acids, detailed in the list of standard amino acids, have a great variety of chemical structures and properties; it is the combined effect of all of the amino acid side chains in a protein that ultimately determines its three-dimensional structure and its chemical reactivity.
DNA is the only polymer in that list. The other 3 options are all individual subunits that could be made into a polymer. Amino acids are the monomers (individual subunits) that up DNA and RNA
