Q177 / 200 · NEET 2022 (Phase 2) · Zoology

Against the codon 5' UAC 3', what would be the sequence of anticodon on tRNA ?

  • A
    5' AUG 3'
  • B
    5' ATG 3'
  • C
    5' GTA 3'
  • Correct answer
    D
    $5^{\prime}$ GUA $3^{\prime}$

Solution

5' UAC 3' code on mRNA can be complemented by 5' GUA 3' on anticodon loop of tRNA. Codon anticodon pairing between mRNA and rRNA is the key of translation process.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
