If a protein will end up with 30 amino acids, how many codons, not including the STOP codon, were on the mRNA
transcript that produced it?

Translation is the second process of gene expression, which involves the synthesis of amino acid sequence from mRNA. This process occurs in the ribosome where the mRNA is read in a group of three nucleotide bases called CODON. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid.

Since one codon specifies or translates into one amino acid, a protein with 30 amino acids will contain 30 codons (exclusive of STOP CODONS) on the mRNA transcript.

If a protein will end up with 30 amino acids, how many codons, not including the STOP codon, were on the mRNA transcript that produced it?
