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.
