In $mRNA, AUG$ is the initiation codon and $UAA, UAG$ and $UGA$ are termination codons, therefore polypeptide cannot be synthesized beyond any of these triplets to the end of $mRNA$. Then which one of the following $mRNA$ can be translated completely

A

$AUG  \ UUC \ UCC \ UGG \ UAA \ UAU$

B

$AUG \ UUC \ UCC \ UGA \ UGG \ UAU$

C

$AUC \ ACG \ UAU \ UUC \ UGA \ CUC$

D

$AUG \ UAU \ UUC \ UGC \ CUC \ UAG$

Solution

(d) Because in this $mRNA, AUG$ is the initiation codon and $UAG$ is the termination codon.
