Since the RNA contains only two nucleotides, A and G, the possible codons would be
AAA, AAG, AGA, GAA, AGG, GGA, GAG, and GGG.
AAA- Lys
AAG- Lys
AGA- Arg
GAA- Glu
AGG- Arg
GGA- Gly
GAG- Glu
GGG- Gly
Four different amino acids (Lys, Arg, Glu and Gly) would be present in the polypeptides.
Amino acid with highest frequency
Codon has three nucleotides.
The probability that ‘A’ occupies the a position in the codon= ¾
The probability that ‘G’ occupies the a position in the codon= ¼
Therefore, the probability for AAA codon to occur has higher probability (3/4 x ¾ x ¾ )
Therefore, Lysine would be the most frequent amino acid.
The probability for GGG codon would be least (1/4 x ¼ x ¼)
Suppose, you synthesized RNA in vitro using polynucleotide phosphorylase, 3 parts ADP and one part GDP...
if you randomly synthesized RNA strands in vitro using a 1:3 mixture of C:U nucleotides, and then translated those RNA strands in vitro, what proportion of the amino acids in the resulting polypeptide chains will be serine amino acids?
The earliest work on the genetic code established UUU, CCC, and
AAA as the codons for Phe, Pro, and Lys, respectively.
Explain the reason why polyG was not used as a translation
template in these experiments.
Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in
the sentences on the right.

QUESTION 32 The genetic code was deciphered in part by experiments in which synthetic polynucleotides were used as mRNAs to direct protein synthesis in cell-free extracts (in-vitro system). In the test tube, artificial conditions were used that allowed ribosomes to start protein synthesis anywhere on an RNA molecule, without the need of a translation start codon, as required in a living cell. What type(s) of polypeptides would you expect to be synthesized if the polynucleotide 5'- CAUCAUCAUCAUCAUCAUC...-3' were used as...
