This is late, sorry about that but for future people the answer should be:

Serine (ser), arginine (arg), alanine (ala), valine (val), glycine (gly), stop

According to the de-coding chart for this lab.

The answer is Ser-Arg-Ala-Val-Gly-STOP


It is known that three nucleotide bases on mRNA are called codon and that each codon codes for the specific amino acid. According to the genetic code chart, the following mRNA sequence will code for the following amino acid sequence:

mRNA sequence: UCU CGA GCC GUU GGG UGA

Amino acid sequence: Ser Arg Ala Val Gly STOP
