Start Codon
The
start codon
is a
specific sequence of nucleotides
in mRNA that signals the beginning of
protein synthesis
, typically represented by the
codon AUG
, which codes for the
amino acid methionine
in eukaryotes. This
initiation codon
is crucial for the proper
translation of genetic information
into
functional proteins
, as it sets the
reading frame
for ribosomes during translation.
