Termination codon — A set of three adjacent bases in the DNA or their complementary bases in messenger RNA that specifies the end of a polypeptide chain. The three termination codons (in messenger RNA) are UAA, UAG, and UGA. They are also called chain termination… … Medical dictionary
termination codon — The three codons, UAA known as ochre, UAG as amber and UGA as opal, that do not code for an amino acid but act as signals for the termination of protein synthesis. They are not represented by any tRNA and termination is catalysed by protein… … Dictionary of molecular biology

Chargaff's rules — state that DNA from any cell of all organisms should have a 1:1 ratio (base Pair Rule)of pyrimidine and purine bases and, more specifically, that the amount of guanine is equal to cytosine and the amount of adenine is equal to thymine. This… … Wikipedia
