Initiation Complex

A complex of proteins and RNA that forms on mRNA to begin the process of translating RNA into a polypeptide chain in the cell.

Nonsense Mutation

A base-pair substitution mutation that results in an amino acid–specifying codon being changed to a termination (stop) codon; when the abnormal mRNA is translated, the resulting protein is usually shortened and nonfunctional. Compare with missense mutation.

Codon

Termination Codon

A nucleotide triplet within messenger RNA that signals the end of translation, resulting in the release of the newly synthesized protein.
