Genetics Info & Tutorial: Proteins

A supplement to the 2008 Cornsnake Morph Guide

The codons have been “translated” to the letters of the alphabet, and now the amino acids attach to the other end of our translators to form a chain. This chain is now a protein, and can be used by the body. In this case, we can pretend this protein is Tyrosinase, and it will be shipped off to make some melanin in our snake.
