The genetic code is the sequence of nitrogen bases in mRNA that contains the information for protein synthesis. A codon is three nitrogen bases that code for a single amino acid. Nirenberg and Mathaei experimentally proved that codons determine amino acids. The genetic code is universal, uses non-overlapping triplets to specify amino acids in a linear, commaless fashion, and employs initiation and termination codons.
The sequence of nucleotides in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) that determines the amino acid sequence of proteins. Though the linear sequence of nucleotides in DNA contains the information for protein sequences, proteins are not made directly from DNA. Instead, a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule is synthesized from the DNA and directs the formation of the protein. RNA is composed of four nucleotides: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and uracil."(U)."

It permits essentially the same complement of enzymes and other proteins to be specified by microorganisms varying widely in their DNA base composition.
Degeneracy also provides a mechanism of minimising mutational lethality.
The genetic code is a nonoverlapping code, with each amino acid plus polypeptide initiation and termination specified by RNA codons composed of three nucleotides.
Genetic code is the term we use for the way that the four bases of DNA--the A, C, G, and Ts--are strung together in a way that the cellular machinery, the ribosome, can read them and turn them into a protein. In the genetic code, each three nucleotides in a row count as a triplet and code for a single amino acid.
Genetic Code. A comprehensive overview..pdfmughalgumar440
The genetic code serves as nature's instruction manual, dictating how genetic information is translated into proteins essential for life. Comprised of codons which code for specific amino acid or signaling the start or end of protein synthesis. This code exhibits redundancy and universality across organisms, In essence, the genetic code is the foundation of biological diversity and functionality, shaping the characteristics and functions of all living beings.
Genetic code is a dictionary that corresponds with sequence of nucleotides and sequence of amino acids.
Genetic code is a set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material(DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins by living cells.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Genetic code is defined as the sequence of nitrogen bases
(nucleotides) in mRNA molecule which contains the
information for the synthesis of protein molecules.
A codon is defined as the sequence of three nitrogen bases
(nucleotides) in mRNA which codes for a single amino acid.
Nirenberg and Mathaei ( 1961 ) experimentally proved that a
single amino acid is determined by a sequence of three nitrogen
bases. The sequence of three nitrogen bases determining a
single amino acid is called a.
triplet code
The genetic code has the following characteristics:
3. 1. Triplet
A single amino acid is specified by a set of three nucleotides in
the mRNA. This is called a codon. Hence, a codon is a triplet.
4. 2. Universal
Genetic code is universal in nature. One type of code
determines the same amino acid in all organisms including
viruses, bacteria, plants and animals.
3. Colinearity
The codons in mRNA and the amino acids in polypeptide
chains have a linear arrangement.
5. 4. Commaless
There is no comma or punctuation between the adjacent
Codons. That is, each codon is immediately followed by the
next codon without any spaces in between.
6. 5. Non-overlapping
Recent discoveries show that codons are non-overlapping.
Hence each letter is read only once.
7. 6. Polarity
The code has a direction or polarity. It is read in only one
direction. Usually it is read from the S(5prime) end of mRNA.
7. Initiation Codon
The synthesis o/a polypeptide chain is initiated by a codon
called initiation codon. It is located in the beginning of a
cistron (gene). The initiation codon is constant in most cases. It
is AUG and it codes for the amino acid methionine.
8. Termination Codon
The synthesis o/a polypeptide chain is completed by a codon
called termination codon. It is located at the end of a cistron.
The termination codon may be UAA, UGA or UAG.
8. The termination codon does not code for any amino acid.
Hence it is also called nonsense codon.
The codon which does not code for any amino acid is called a
non-sense codon. There is no tRNA anti-codon for non-sense
codon. So they are not read by tRNA. But they are recognized
by release factors (RE).
9. 9. Codons and Anticodons
The codons of mRNA can base pair with complementary
codons of tRNA. The codon of tRNA is called anti-codon. In
base pairing, the base A pairs with U and G with C.
The codon in the mRNA is read from the 5/(5 prime end). So
the codon AUG, may be .written as 5/ AUG 3. The
corresponding anti-codon in the tRNA may be written as 5/
UAC Y. This means that the first base will be at the 5/ end in
both codon and anti-codon.
10. Degeneracy
A single amino acid may be specified by many codons. This is
called degeneracy. Such codons are called degenerate codons.
For example, phenylalanine has two codons such as UUU and
CUC. Alanine has four codons such as GCU, GCC, GCA and
GCG.
10. 11. Wobble Hypothesis
Wobble hypothesis was proposed by Crick in 1965. It explains
the property of anti-codons. According to this hypothesis. The
base can pair with the complementary base and also with a
non-complementary base. The first two bases of anti-codon in
the tRNA are specific in recognizing the codon in the mRNA
and the third base of anti-codon is less specific in recognizing
that codon. This non-specific third base is called wobble base.
The unusual base pairing of the wobble base is called wobble
pairing.
11. For example, the anti-codon UCG of serine tRNA recognize
the codon A GC in the mRNA. Here the third base G of tRNA
pairs with C of mRNA. G-C pairing is the normal base pairing.
The anti-codon can also pair with another codon CCU. Here
the third base G of tRNA pairs with U of mRNA. The G-U is
an unusual pairing and it is called wobble base-pairing.
Wobbliness of the third base helps the tRNA to carry more than
one amino acid.
