Question:

Select the correct option regarding genetic code of Glycine.

GUU, GUC, GUA

GAU, GAC, GAA

GGU, GGA, GGC

GGU, GGA, GCU

Solution:

Correct option is C. GGU, GGA, GGC
The standard genetic code is represented as an RNA codon because, when proteins are made in a cell by ribosomes, it is mRNA that directs protein synthesis.
Glycine is an amino acid, a building block for protein. The genetic code of glycine is GGU, GGA, GGC.
So, the correct answer is 'GGU, GGA, GGC'
