... mRNA (ref. 19 for a general review). For example, proline is coded by 5'-CCN-3' and alanine by 5'-GCN-3'. In other cases the pattern may be more complex, such as for isoleucine, which is coded by 5'-AT(T, C or A)-3'. Note that certain amino acids (e.g. serine) may be coded by two distinct groups of ...
