The relaxed base-pairing rules between the third base of a codon and the corresponding base of an anticodon in tRNA, allowing some flexibility in codon-anticodon interactions, proposed by Crick. (6, 10) 4. A sequence of three nucleotides (bases) in DNA or RNA (5) 6. The number of amino acids that exist (word) (6) 9. A genetic mutation in a DNA sequence that results in a shorter, unfinished protein product (8) 10. A type of mutation where the alteration of a nucleotide base in a gene sequence results in the translation of different amino acids in the protein (7) Down 2. Relieves the tension generated ahead of the replication fork by cutting, rotating, and rejoining the DNA strands, thus preventing supercoiling and ensuring smooth progression of the replication machinery (13) 3. Signals the termination of protein synthesis (4, 5) 5. The amino acid coded for my the start codon AUG in prokaryotes (16) 7. What amino acid is coded for by the start codon? (10) 8. Any permanent, heritable change in the DNA base sequence of an organism (8)
