Zane, our apology about the error. Here are the fixed set of choices:

Which alteration in the system would allow the gene from family A to be translated into a fully functional protein?
(A) Include a ribosome that would not recognize the codon AGA.
(B) Use a tRNA with the anticodon UCU that carries the amino acid serine.
(C) Replace the normal splicing machinery with one that will remove the incorrect codon.
(D) Substitute the normal RNA polymerase with one that randomly makes mistakes to correct the mutation.

Shouldn't the anticodon in b read "acu"?
