| chain-initiation c.’s |
the codons, AUG or GUG, occurring at the beginning of mRNA sequences coding for polypeptide chains. There they are recognized by the initiator tRNA, which carries the amino acid methionine (in the cytosol of eukaryotes) or N-formyl methionine (in prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts). In the middle of a polypeptide chain these codons are recognized by other tRNAs so that AUG directs the incorporation of methionine and GUG of valine.

the three codons UAA, UAG, and UGA that cause termination of the synthesis of a growing polypeptide chain and its release from the ribosome. Called also nonsense c's.

The word chain usually refers to primary drive, in which sense it means the chain transferring power to the rear wheel. As opposed to the two alternatives, shaft or belt drive, the chain is a light-weight solution and does not cause lag in throttle response or elevation effects. On the other hand it is a solution that needs a lot of maintenance. Submit new or altered description
