Mutations and DNA repair. Francis Crick's "wobble pairing" hypothesis suggested an economical mechanism for translation of the
degenerate genetic code. His idea turned out to be correct, whereby a single tRNA molecule can recognize multiple codons in MRNA.
Nevertheless, the degeneracy of the genetic code demands more than one RNA for some amino acids. For example, two tRNAs are
needed to recognize the four codons of valine. What are the anticodons of these tRNAS? (Write single CAPITAL letters, with no
