"Third-base wobble allows some tRNAs to recognize more than one mRNA codon. Based on this chapter's discussion of wobble, what is the minimal number of tRNA molecules necessary to recognize the following amino acids?" "leucine"

In case of the amino acid Leucine only, there are six different codons (TTA, TTG, CTT, CTC, CTA, CTG) that the tRNA can recognize and translate. Since there is only one codon that needs to be translated, only one tRNA is required.

Explanation:

The anti-codon on the tRNA recognizes the complementary bases on the codon, and because of the third-base wobble feature, there isn't a 1:1 ratio between the number of codons present and the anti-codons required.

Hope that answers the question. Have a great day!

its probably to later but whats the question
