The amino acid chain will be; Lysine-Arginine-Cysteine
Amino acids are the building block of proteins, many amino acid molecules make up polypeptide chains which form proteins. Each amino acid is coded by a specific codon during the process of translation. A codon consists of three nucleotide bases. In this case AAG codes for amino acid Lysine, while AGA codes for Arginine and UGU codes for amino acid Cysteine.
