Answer: The RNA that will contain codons is – mRNA. In mature mRNA, each amino acid in a protein is specified by a set of three nucleotides called a codon. This is the case for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. There are start codon (AUG), stop codon (UAA, UAG, and UGA) and codons (protein-coding region) that translates into the other amino acids in the polypeptide. tRNA, snRNA, siRNA, and rRNA are functional RNAs required for the catalysis and other important functions in the cell, but they do not translate to proteins with specific codons in their sequences.
