If you have the mRNA strand:

AUGUUUGGGCCCAAAUAACCGG

How many amino acids does it produce.

AUG would produce Met
UUU would make Phe
GGG would make Gly
AAA would make Pro
UAA would be the stop codone

The problem is that AUG is the standard start codon, does it just count as the start codon or does it produce an amino acid also. Thanks for the help
