Codon Reading FrameCodon Reading FrameAUG is always the AUG is always the “start” codon so all “start” codon so all polypeptides begin with polypeptides begin with Methionine when they Methionine when they are synthesizedare synthesized
Having a consistent start Having a consistent start codon is necessary so codon is necessary so that the reading frame is that the reading frame is always the same.always the same.
