Introns are known to contain termination codons (UAA, UGA, or UAG), yet these codons do not interrupt the coding of a particular protein. Why?
◦ Exons are spliced out of mRNA before translation.
◦ Introns are removed from mRNA before translation.
◦ UAA, UGA, and UAG are initiator codons, not termination codons.
◦ These triplets cause frameshift mutations, but not termination.
◦ More than one termination codon is needed to stop translation.

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.
