The genetic code 

Don't you just love it when a less than 10min video teaches you what your teacher hasn't managed to teach you for a WHOLE SEMESTER :)) I am lowkey so mad right now, this whole thing about translating mRNA stressed me tf out for MONTHS, giving me so much anxiety and now you're telling me that all it took was just ignoring my teacher and watching a youtube video?? :))

Who else here is trying to learn on their own since schools are closed coz of COVID-19🙋

UNIVERSALITY OF THE CODE - Initially the genetic code was believed to apply universally, that is all organisms would recognize individual codons as the same amino acids. However, it has now been shown that some variation in the code exists, although this is rare. For example, animal mitochondria have a small DNA genome containing about 20 genes in which deviations from the genetic code occur. Changes are mostly associated with start and stop codons. For example, UGA, which is normally a termination codon, codes for tryptophan, whereas AGA and AGG, which normally encode arginine, are termination codons, and AUA, normally isoleucine, specifi es methionine. It is thought that these changes tend to be viable because the mitochondrion is a closed system. A few examples of nonstandard codon usage have now been found outside mitochondrial genomes in unicellular organisms. For example UAA and UAG, which are normally stop codons, encode glutamic acid in some protozoa. SOURCE: Genetics, Hugh L. Fletcher, ‎G. Ivor Hickey - 2013

am literally preparing for my Biotechnology exams tomorrow, great explanation

You are a master at explaining this. I'm in awe of what I just learned in 10 minutes. Thank you so much!

The Boston or New Yorker Accent is strong with this one in her O’s and A’s

just watched this 10 min before my exam n all the anxiety is gone thanks 🙏

Thanks! This helped immensely in understanding DNA redundancy.

thank you so much!!! so helpful i study biology in arabic but this helped me alot i have quiz tomorrow

This has been so helpful, thank you greatly

Immensely helpful. Thank you so much !!!

This Lady is very excellent 👏👏👏👏

Great explaining! It's easier than I thought.

Great Explanation, I can use it for our lessons, thanks! loved it though

the best explanation so far👍

Amazing! Thanks a lot.

I think there should be more details to link information together it’s not right just to go on without the main basics of the lesson but thank you it kinda helped me

Thank You for Your TEACHED

thank you am saved by your teaching

Great explanation

Wow The way you have explained it thank you so much 💟💟💟

I just can't believe is so freaking simple.

degenerate, basically a fancy term for redundant....XD I love it

Amazing lecture.. I wonder who those 16 people are who disliked the video.. It's so awesome who would dislike it.

Excellent presentation. Thx.

thank you, it helped me a lot.

thanks God i love want this video becos tomorrow we will have exam

Superbbb😚

That was very helpful. I understood that well. Now I know the base to start at. But my question is “ explain that variations in trait are caused by variations in the genetic code” I feel like I understand that, but is there another video y’all recommend to further learn?

thnkuuuu...this helped me a lot.....

thank you. good explanation !!!!!!!

Much Gratitude. Magical Miracles Radiant Souls

absolutely beautiful explanation. Keep it up :D

अति उत्तम अध्यापनं । मोहोदययः त्वं धन्यवादाः

Thank you!

Omg this helped me so muchhh thank youuuu

I love you 😭😭 you made this so easy

This is very helpful shout out KA!!!!!!!

Thank you

thanks ❤️ ساعدني الشرح كثيرا على الفهم

Just amazing

Thank you, I needed this.

thanks!

very cool - thank you!

Great video

*BRILLIANT MA'AM*

genetic code beautifully​ explained from basics

awesome mam thank u

well explained, tnx

really helpful

Thanks a lot!

Fantastic

Wow! DNA is smart!

How were the codons assigned to their amino acids? It's my understanding that the order of the nucleotides doesn't release an enzyme or anything that could possibly link codons with their specific amino acid. So how is the code being "read"?

Great video tnx a lot

Thank you sooooo much

thank you so much

Amazing 💌👏👏

❤ that great thank you

Thankssssss ❤❤❤❤

شكرااااا thanx 😍😍😍😍

Thank you!! :-)

Ty❤soo much

Thanks !

What you writing on screen I can't see it properly

thanks alot

How do you find the corresponding codon when you are only given the amino acid?

Yeah...It's helpful ...😃

why incomplete? btw thanks

thanks

nice video

That's amazing

can someone tell me what her accent is? i'm not from america so i can't work out what it is exactly

Did you act in YOU web series of NETFLIX? Because the voice reminds me of a character in it!

Thankyou

perfection

So adding adenine at the end of each codon ends the translation process?

Intelligent design anyone??? and the Universal aspect proves one designer.

Very good, but I can't see what you're writing!

which platform do yall use, if possible let me know :)

u wanna hijack my skeleton? DNA is what makes "YOU", you.

Why are Chromosomes almost always showen in the distinct X shape, which is only shaped like that after duplication. i mean most of the time Chromosomes are just lines with a centromere. when you depict it as an X shape you confuse students who need to know and sketch meiosis and mitosis.

super

I LOVE IT

but on what signals does the strand get picked for transcription?

i fucking love the genetic code

Where is genetic code restored? Thank you

ik how to code rna codons i just dont know how to code dna and where to start it cant be just random base pairings

ohh.wow.great!!!!!

neurons secure eggs jewel

Why do some codons have 'Y' in them? E.g. CGY

the best

isnt it meant to 'U' instead of 'A'

Anyone else hearing the siren in the background? 😅

I may be the only person that noticed this, but are there crickets in the background? you may not hear them at first, but I started hearing them around 3:20. Sorry if it seems a bit disrespectful to point out, (not saying that it's a problem, I only noticed it because I watched the video for about 30 minutes) but thank you for making this video, it helped me out a lot!! :)

Amino acids full form give me pls

I look at the genetic code and I immediately would conclude its function was made by an intelligent force. This looks like computer software and I would never argue a computer program, no matter how many billions of years you give it, would randomly code life. Just thinking how long some of the code would be for complex functions, it just will randomly happen if you give it enough time? To me, that requires more of a leap of faith than believing an intelligent mind coded it. And the fact that theres a stop function, doesnt that require intelligence? Why would a random genetic code randomly throw in stop in its code? Doesnt stop imply intent which then obviously implies intelligence?

Genetic coding in Haskel?

lel where are you from? once in a while your accent gets really thick

Did anyone else hear police sirens at 5:40?
