| The anticodon contained in the tRNA determines which amino acid it will carry. |
| Thus, any mRNA codon that happens to be on the ribosome at any one time will solicit the binding only of the tRNA with the appropriate anticodon, which will align the correct amino acid for addition to the chain. |
| The E Site is the exit site for the tRNA anticodon once it deposits its amino acid from the cytoplasm onto the growing polypeptide chain. |
| These quantities indicate quite clearly the general effect of codon binding on the anticodon structure and fluctuations. |
| The researchers changed the anticodon in their new tRNA to match up with the UAG stop codon instead of the codon for glutamine. |
| A tRNA molecule is a single nucleotide chain with several helical regions and a loop containing three unpaired nucleotides, called an anticodon. |
