Anticodon
An anticodon is a trinucleotide sequence complementary to that of a corresponding codon in a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence. An anticodon is found at one end of a transfer RNA (tRNA) molecule.
Anticodon. A nucleotide base triplet in a transfer RNA molecule that pairs with a complementary base triplet, or codon, in a messenger RNA molecule. See Codon, Messenger RNA, RNA.
Anticodon
The three bases in a tRNA that are complementary to those in the codon of the mRNA.
Antigen
A substance that interacts with an antibody.
anticodon A sequence of three nucleotides on the transfer RNA molecule that recognizes and pairs with a specific codon on a messenger RNA molecule; helps control the sequence of amino acids in a growing polypeptide chain. PICTURE ...

[edit] Anticodon
An anticodon[1] is a unit made up of three nucleotides that correspond to the three bases of the codon on the mRNA.
Anticodon

anticodon loop The portion of a tRNA molecule responsible for the anticodon triplet, which pairs with the codon of mRNA.
Notice that the 3-letter anticodon on the tRNA molecule matches the 3-letter code (called a codon) in the mRNA. The tRNA with the anticodon "UAC" bonds with methionine. It always transports methionine.
Each kind of tRNA has a sequence of 3 unpaired nucleotides — the anticodon — which can bind, following the rules of base pairing, to the complementary triplet of nucleotides — the codon — ...
At the top of the large loop are three bases, the anticodon, which is the complement of the codon. There are 61 different tRNAs, each having a different binding site for the amino acid and a different anticodon.
The ability of certain bases at the third position of an anticodon in tRNA to form hydrogen bonds in various ways, causing alignment with several possible codons.

Problem 14: Codon-anticodon base pairing
With what mRNA codon would the tRNA in the diagram be able to form a codon-anticodon base pairing interaction?
A.
Using the mRNA as a template, the ribosome traverses each codon, pairing it with the appropriate amino acid. This is done through interacting with transfer RNA (tRNA) containing a complementary anticodon on one end and the appropriate amino acid on ...
There are enzymes that specifically attach the correct amino acid to the correct tRNA with the appropriate anticodon. The tRNAs are all the same dimension from head to foot.
