geneetilise informatsiooni koodiüksus, desoksüribonukleiinhappe või informatsiooniribonukleiinhappe (mRNA) koostises olev nukleotiidikolmik (triplett), mis määrab kindla aminohappe paigutuse sünteesitava valgu polüpeptiidahelas
a triplet of three consecutive bases in the DNA or in messenger RNA, which specifies (codes for) a particular amino acid for incorporation in a polypeptide
The prion protein genotype shall be determined for each positive TSE case in sheep. TSE cases found in resistant genotypes (sheep of genotypes which encode alanin on both alleles at codon 136, arginin on both alleles at codon 154 and arginin on both alleles at codon 171) shall immediately be reported to the Commission.
