In order to now which amino acid sequence will be generated, we first need to observe a table of codons. In this case, the codons are as follows:

ACU - Threonine (Thr)

AUG - Methionine (Met)

CAU - Histidine (His)

GCU - Alanine (Ala)

UAA - Stop codon

Therefore, the correct answer is E. Thr - Met - His - Ala
