  • Stop codon — In the genetic code, a stop codon (or termination codon) is a nucleotide triplet within messenger RNA that signals a termination of translation.[1] Proteins are based on polypeptides, which are unique sequences of amino acids. Most codons in… …   Wikipedia

  • stop codon — noun , a sequence of three RNA nucleotides (A, C, G or U) that instruct the synthesis, or translation, of a protein to stop. The three letter stop codon sequences have been given names: UAG is amber, UGA is opal, and UAA is ochre …   Wiktionary

  • Stop-Codon — Als Stopcodon, auch Nonsense Codon wird in der Genetik ein Basentriplett (Codon) der Desoxyribonukleinsäure (DNA) beziehungsweise der Ribonukleinsäure (RNA) bezeichnet, für das keine zugehörige tRNA (Transfer RNA) vorliegt und somit den Abbruch… …   Deutsch Wikipedia

  • stop codon — A set of three nucleotides for which there is no corresponding tRNA molecule to insert an amino acid into the polypeptide chain. Protein synthesis is hence terminated and the completed polypeptide released from the ribosome. Three stop codons are …   Glossary of Biotechnology
