The genetic code consists of 64 triplets of nucleotides. These triplets are called codons.With three exceptions, each codon encodes for one of the 20 amino acids used in the synthesis of proteins. That produces some redundancy in the code: most of the amino acids being encoded by more than one codon.
One codon, AUG serves two related functions:
1. it signals the start of translation
2. it codes for the incorporation of the amino acid methionine (Met) into the growing polypeptide chain

But doesn't AUG also code for formylated methionine??
technically this question would have two answers then- methionine and formylated methionine. If anyone knows how to conclude the correct answer please do reply.
