Transfer RNA (tRNA) has a coding section and an amino acid carrying section. The code identifies which amino acid is carried so that the proper amino acids are used at ribosomes during protein synthesis.
Each type of tRNA molecule can be attached to only one type of amino acid, but because the genetic code contains multiple codons that specify the same amino acid, tRNA molecules bearing different anticodons may also carry the same amino acid.
