Preferred Label : codon;
MeSH definition : A set of three nucleotides in a protein coding sequence that specifies individual
amino acids or a termination signal (CODON, TERMINATOR). Most codons are universal,
but some organisms do not produce the transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER) complementary
to all codons. These codons are referred to as unassigned codons (CODONS, NONSENSE).;
