In the United States, approximately 1.5 to 3 percent of healthy cats are infected with FIV. Bite wounds are the primary means of transmission for FIV. Cats with FIV often have poor coat condition and persistent fever with a loss of appetite. A veterinarian will draw a blood sample for a test to detect the presence of antibodies in the blood.
anticodon. a triplet of nucleotides in transfer RNA that is complementary to the codon in messenger RNA that specifies the amino acid. Anticodon. The three nucleotides (shaded) on a transfer RNA bind to a complementary messenger RNA codon. From Dorland's, 2000.
One part of the tRNA has a sequence of three bases that makes up the anticodon. The anticodon has to match the mRNA's codon to tell it that it's the next tRNA in line. Another part of the tRNA molecule picks up an amino acid to bring to the ribosome to be added on to the growing protein.t has codons, which match up with the anticodons on tRNA. tRNA is the RNA that bonds to amino acids and transfers them to ribosomes, and mRNA. The reason RNA is used is because the cytoplasm is too damaging to DNA, so RNA is kind of a scapegoat. Hopefully, this helps.
