The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells. The code defines a set of 64 codons (three-nucleotide sequences) that specify the 20 standard amino acids used by all organisms to build proteins, as well as start and stop signals.
