Question:
At the end of translation, the release factor binds to this codon to complete polypeptide from the ribosome
At the end of translation, the release factor binds to this codon to complete polypeptide from the ribosome
Show Hint
UAA, UAG, and UGA are stop codons—no tRNA matches them.

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
UAA is one of the three stop codons (UAA, UAG, UGA) that signal termination of translation. When the ribosome encounters a stop codon, release factors bind, ending polypeptide synthesis.
