What is one particular function that the codons (UAA, UGA, or UAG) serve during protein synthesis?
◦ UAA, UGA, and UAG are initiator codons, not termination codons.
◦ They act in chain termination.
◦ They allow the mRNA to assume a variety of linear conformations.
◦ These triplets cause frameshift mutations, but are not involved in termination.
◦ They provide a substrate for the addition of the initiator amino acid.

Unlike other forms, more than 80% of hepatitis C infections become chronic and lead to liver disease. When combined with hepatitis B, hepatitis C now accounts for 75% percent of all cases of liver disease around the world. Liver failure caused by hepatitis C is now leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
