The simplest way to decipher the code would be to start with an mRNA molecule of known sequence, use it to direct the synthesis of a protein, and then determine the amino acid sequence of the ...

In RNA, the nucleotides are A, C, U, and G. The order, or sequence, of the nucleotides in DNA allows nucleic acid to encode an organism's genetic blueprint.
