Answer

  1. AUG

Explanation:

AUG is the initiation codon. Translation starts with a chain initiation codon or start codon and terminates with a stop codon. The start codon is the first codon of a messenger RNA (mRNA) transcript translated by a ribosome. The start codon always codes for methionine in eukaryotes and a modified Met (fMet) in prokaryotes. The most common start codon is AUG.
