OBS

An explanation of how a specific transfer RNA (tRNA) molecule can translate different codons in a messenger RNA template: there is some looseness in the alignment that allows the third base of the anticodon to pair with a base other than its normal complementary base. Other than the normal complementary pairs of guanine (G), with cytosine (C) and adenine (A) with uracil (U), G pairs with U, U pairs with G, and I (inosine) pairs with A, U, or C, where the first base of these pairs is the third base of the anticodon.

OBS

[L'hypothèse] indique que pour la 3e base du codon, la règle d'appariement stricte des bases avec celle de l'anticodon n'est pas respectée.

DEF

[Hipótesis que] explica cómo un ARNt [ácido ribonucleico transmisor] puede reconocer a más de un codón.

OBS

Las dos primeras bases del codón y anticodón del ARNm [ácido ribonucleico mensajero] se aparean correctamente, pero la tercera base del anticodón tiene cierta flexibilidad que le permite aparearse bien con la base esperada o con una alternativa.
