codon
Recurrent mutations at codon 625 of the splicing factor SF3B1 in uveal melanoma.

During the 1980s, it was shown that selenocysteine is encoded by the codon UGA.

The duplication involves exons 10 and 11 and introduces a premature stop codon.

We therefore assigned the likely start codon for each SEP to determine its length.

When present, an upstream in-frame AUG was assumed to be the initiation codon.
From the nature.com
The most frequent AA was taken to be the canonical translation of that codon.

Each codon consists of three nucleotides, usually representing a single amino acid.
From the en.wikipedia.org
A given amino acid may be encoded by between one and six different codon sequences.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Translation works because each codon-anticodon match corresponds with an amino acid.

- A specific sequence of three adjacent nucleotides on a strand of DNA or RNA that specifies the genetic code information for synthesizing a particular amino acid
- The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or mRNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells. The code defines a mapping between tri-nucleotide sequences, called codons, and amino acids. ...
- Wageningen University and Research Centre (also known as Wageningen UR; abbreviation: WUR) is a research and higher education concern which consists of Wageningen University, the Van Hall-Larenstein School of Higher Professional Education, and the former agricultural research institutes (Dienst ...
- A sequence of three adjacent nucleotides, which encode for a specific amino acid during protein synthesis, or translation. Three special codons, called "stop codons," signal protein synthesis to terminate
- (codons) three nucleotide sequences in RNA which specify one amino acid (to be linked into a protein which is being synthesized).
- (Codons) USE Nucleotide sequence
- (Codons) organic bases in sets of three that form the genetic ode
- A triplet of three letters (base pairs) of the DNA alphabet.
- A sequence of three nucleotides in messenger RNA that codes for a single amino acid.
