  • So you've seen our DNA vs RNA and Protein Synthesis videos, but now you may be wondering how to use those codon charts to determine the amino acids of a protein? You've come to the right video! Join the Amoeba Sisters as they show how to work through a rectangular and circular codon chart. Also, find our video companion under the topic "codon charts" on our handout page www.amoebasisters.com/handouts
    We cover the basics in biology concepts at the secondary level. If you are looking to discover more about biology and go into depth beyond these basics, our recommended reference is the FREE, peer reviewed, open source OpenStax biology textbook: openstax.org/details/books/bi...
    Codons and the amino acids they code for are represented by standard charts that can be found in the public domain. Different codon chart types can also be found in the public domain, and two examples that are useful for reference are below.

    Rectangular Codon Chart in Public Domain: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi...

      Hello again Amoeba Sisters, I just want to let you know again. I hope you like my comment! Maybe you can make a video about autism. I think I would like it. Pinky, I wish I can time travel back to Petunia’s 2nd speed draw and remind you that you are going to have preeclampsia! Think we should make you baby and your 1st child high intelligent!!! Talk to you soon!🧬🧩👩‍🔬
      P.S. Do cells know that they made us? If they do, how do they know? I have so many questions!🤔

    Hi Amoeba Sisters! My name is Beata (Bee-ah tah) Yacura. I just want to let you know that I am a huge fan! I have autism! If you don’t know what autism is, I can explain it to you. It is a genetic disorder. Autism is when people who can’t socialize. But what’s beneficial about is they can be fixated on something! I am similar to you Pinky, I am fixated on science. I am always staying curious! When I grow up, I am going to be a scientist. I want to cure diseases for you Pinky, and Petunia!:)
